This site is driving me mad....

Every time I click on a page on this Forum it keeps coming up with the "We value your Privacy" for Cookies etc. and I then have to click "Reject All". When I access the forum. When I click on a Topic. When I click on a thread.

It's driving me mad.

But they DO value your privacy. In fact they value it so highly they're trying to steal it from you.

If you reject all cookies the site doesn't know where you've been, what you've looked at, or indeed that you rejected cookies, or not.

Why not just accept the cookies ?

There's a long thread about it in "Forum issues"
Basically this site, unlike any other I know, won't allow the reject all option especially if you use certain browsers. Every other site I use has no problem with this. I have questioned the legality of what is going on here but no one in "authority" is interested in addressing the problem.

Because legally we don’t have to. There is a legitimate use clause allowing them to use cookies without asking for site functionality so this decision should be saved. Ironically the site is breaking the law by effectively bullying people into accepting tracking cookies.

Whilst removing or closing posts which discuss ''çurrent affairs'' is rather like treating people like children the probelm described I don't experience. One click on Reject All and logging in takes care of it. You appear to be a registered member? My browser is Firefox and I have none of the difficulties you describe.
