The notification isn't the issue. It's user-tracking which is the issue, combined with companies breaking the GDPR by making it harder to deny consent than to grant consent.

I really do not want to help a company 'facilitate web analytics, understand user behavior, manage ad efficiency, or keyword traffic', so I always click "do not agree".

Many companies make it harder to say "do not agree", and waste my time by taking me to another page with sometimes a scroll-list that I must navigate to individually turn off items.

If there are too many, I will close the page.

So if this analysis about '575 Million Hours Clicking Cookie Banners Every Year' is true and meaningful, the #1 way to improve it is to have a big "do not track me" button that anyone can click on, and a small "track me please" for those who want to help the company.
