🚨Make your voices heard & #KILLTHECOOKIEBANNER. 🍪 The European Commission wants to remove the ANNOYING COOKIE BANNER,, but of course Google is lobbying against this. 🍪🙄 Worryingly, EU Member States like Germany and France also want to keep it. WHY? Tech Giants like Google make HUGE profits tracking you, so of course they don't want it to be easier for you to not consent. 😡 Say no here → https://killthecookiebanner.eu/take-action/ Find out more → https://tuta.com/blog/why-eu-member-states-and-google-want-to-keep-cookie-banner #DigitalOmnibus #EU #Google #BigTech

@Tutanota@mastodon.social And while at writing mails to representatives to #KILLTHECOOKIEBANNER you might as well write them to kill #EUKidsAct and sign this initiative fighting against #EUKidsAct & #ChatControl 2.0: https://eci.ec.europa.eu/066/public/#/screen/home

@Tutanota@mastodon.social Cookie banners != tracker cookies. If we "kill" the cookie banner, big tech can just now show the cookie banner and track you silently.

@Tutanota@mastodon.social @ethniccanuck@ohai.social kinda telling that cookies serve no purpose but to track people. Websites work fine without them.

@Tutanota@mastodon.social Done! I just sent out 16 emails or so, yesterday. That's definitely a new step on my responsible European citizen journey :)
