Isn't that illegal to do in the UK.  Not really all that up to date on EU laws and so forth but I thought you have to get the user permission for that.

Every time you press except a cookie, your data is brokered by hundreds. Often you cannot reject all cookies, because 'essential'. 

In this case you will not even have a reject button. The money to fund this has to come from somewhere.

You are not telling me anything I do not know, what I am saying is why would Law makers and corporations need a law to get your data when there are so many ways that data is already giving out and freely sold between corporations already.  Why institute something that bring focus to something they already get for free with no effort.  

If they wanted to have easy access to your data, then instead of making laws, they would just deregulate instead.  Much easier to deregulate and allow unfettered tracking of individuals online than making some obscure law based on children access to adult content.
