Microsoft crap is similarly broken. After each and every login there is the question whether it should remember me and whether it should ask that question again. It doesn't matter at all what you answewr there, it changes absolutely nothing.
I wonder how many millions of productivity hours have been lost due to millions of people having to click through these stupid, useless prompts countless times per day.
That is the single most useless dialog/question in IT. I wonder how much money that costs the global economy a year.
Disable anti-tracking features and ad blocks, it turns out cookies and temp storage for ad tracking are how IDPs track your choice to trust the device too.
Adblocking and anti-tracking are mandatory on my company laptop, cannot switch those off. And I wouldn't want to.
This is actually one great use for an MDM policy.
Most adblockers etc are pretty selective about cookies.
I guess if you got really aggressive like an allow-list approach, you could have friction, but just using ublock's defaults I don't get 'unrecognized' from anything any quicker than I do on a device without it.
