A 'cookie banner' I've came across recently (https://www.courthousenews.com/scotus-calls-for-redo-on-wash...) feels so bizarre yet arguably should be the standard.

Yes, I love this. My browser is already sending "do not track" requests.
I’m sure the Meta’s and Google’s on this planet will all faithfully honor our “do not track” requests.
I'm sure if they had to by some EU directive, they would. Organizations that big can't conceal that, as they risk discovery findings and whistleblower activities.

I'm getting a cookie popup floating thing myself with five options, "Accept all", "reject all", "cookie settings", "confirm my choices", and... "cookie settings" again.
Sounds like you don't have the global privacy control flag set. In Firefox there's a "tell websites not to share or sell my data" flag. In Chrome you need to install an extension (such as an adblocker).
