Slightly off-topic, but for European readers:

Is how Facebook is trying to off-load cookie control onto the user's browser configuration anything close to compliant with law?

This is the only instance of a company I have seen not bothering with 'Accept' vs some other complicated choice dialog (and I only saw this because I was annoyed by WhatsApp forcing the TOS change and, lo, they seem to be forcing 'Allow all' for cookies too?)

Telling my browser my privacy preferences and then requiring sites to follow that seems like the holy grail of privacy to me. Next up: Do Not Track. If it's set, skip the dialog and follow my preference instead. Along with that, browsers should make it into a drop-down with [do not track | do track | do not express a preference], so that people who prefer personalization also don't need to suffer the dialogs.

Yes, same here.
