> Right so every website needing a cookie banner to comply with EU regulations

As it was pointed out, no, EU regulations don't mandate cookie banners. It seem you have an axe to grind with the EU.

> but it doesn't even prevent tracking

Incognito mode doesn't prevent all forms of tracking was what GP said...

No, they don't. Read the GDPR, it's not that long. The actual problem is that the current practice on which massive profits depend is contrary to any privacy desires. If they didn't track, they wouldn't need ask for consent for the tracking.

And I don't even like the EU, I want it ended.

Go the Apple website. No cookies banner.
