So has anyone read about this? IT is a new law stating that websites that use cookies must let the users know and allow them to accept or deny.

What do you think about this? How are sites like facebook or google going to comply. Or better yet how are forum software and blog software going to comply?

I don't think anyone is going to worry about complying with such a silly law written by computer illiterate dirty old men.

Aren't websites like Facebook and Google American companies? They don't have to comply with a EU law, as long as they are based in the US.

In any case, I think the law is ridiculous. Very.

That's because American law is THE LAW. No one cares about what the brown people may think, just the red, WHITE, and blue 4ever

You gotta go on FP high more often, these posts are awesome. EDIT: Nope looks like you either took a really small hit and it wore off, or your high posts are blending in with your normal posts.
