I've been reading MIT Tech Review's coronavirus coverage, and clicked on the "Cookie Information" link in their page banner, and was dismayed to see that all cookie classes, even the "targeting" (aka tracking) cookies are shown as "Always Active", without the ability to disable them. (Granted, I have several browser extensions that should be blocking these regardless.)
Out of the sites I've visited that use this sort of cookie disclosure style, this is the first one I've noticed that doesn't allow any cookies to be disabled at all. I'm a bit dismayed that a publication put out by an institution like MIT is engaging in a practice like this.
How common is this? Are there many other sites that do this that people have seen? Is there any avenue where we can evangelize to orgs that they shouldn't do this?
