Most people do the same thing: sigh, their eyes glaze over, and they click "Accept All" with the muscle memory of a weary soldier.

Wait, do people hit accept all instead of reject all by default? 😮

Most people do not know what cookies are and just click ok or accept on anything you flash at them. Could even add a disclaimer that the company can legally sell them as a slave, in big red letters and most would click accept. I have seen some people use their PC and it always hurts inside.

I just burn my cookies when I’m done. I don’t want to get fat on cookies.
