> Blocking cookies should be done by users via software.

That’s what is done.

The government doesn’t block cookies for you, they set the rules with user data, and the actors (service providers and users) act accordingly.

That’s how things should be.

I don’t want the governments to build or design software, I want them to set the rules and let browser developers and other actors react accordingly. If the reaction isn’t judged well intended or good enough, they are sanctioned accordingly.
