alt Hacker NewsToo bad, because it basically said they only use necessary cookies.
I suppose you'd have complained if there were no cookie banner as well?
I mean, that cookie popup saying there's no need for a cookie popup is probably there because someone complained there's no cookie popup...
The
"Appreciate it" / "cool carry on"
Is exactly the sort of confusing non choice options cookie banners give. Along the lines of
"Accept all" / "more information"
Then I'll retract my claim but it is bad UX to make a popup on the landing page that looks like an evil cookie banner.
