alt Hacker NewsOMG. The site had a popup banner to tell me that they don't have a cookie banner? What the actual f____?
Either:
- They actually decided to remove one of the most annoying things about the modern web... and replace it with something very similar to tell you that they removed it, or...
- They found some legal justification for getting me to accept their cookies for dismissing the "no cookie banner banner"
Either choice makes me think less of them.

If you'd bothered to read the banner, it answers your question: "Zero cookies, zero trackers, zero pixels."
Then it links to a page which is even more explicit about how little they collect: https://www.infohawk.com/cookies

I only clicked on the link after reading your comment. Yep, what that website is doing is obnoxious. A little less obnoxious than a cookie banner, but more obnoxious than not having any banner or modal.
