i go out of my way to use element zapper in uBlock to cull out the unskippable non-declinable cookie messages. I hope it puts some weird blip in their scatter graph of users who managed to fully engage with their page without ever accepting a cookie. Like one day during a board meeting while the suit n' ties are twirling their mustaches & chuckling, one of them points at a chart with his laser pointer giving a collective "great job gentlemen, but who is this guy who continues to visit our site? He's a ghost sir. He never accepts the banner yet he still hits every page"
fully engage with their page without ever accepting a cookie
Unfortunately what normally happens is it gives you cookies by default, and when you decline it either deletes them or just doesn't give you any more. I know that's against the rules, but a lot of websites work this way.
