Blame the EU. There, cookies used to bother a tiny number of “privacy advocates” who were already perfectly capable of blocking the cookies in their own browsers but they weren’t happy because no one else cared about cookies so they got the GDPR passed to bother everyone in the world.
Not the EU’s fault that all those websites want to invade your privacy.
The EU only demanded consent. That all those websites care more about marketing than about their users says more about those websites than it does the law.

As in the meme…
Me: I consent (to load the website using the cookie settings already in my browser).
Website: I consent.
Privacy busybodies and EU regulators: I don’t.
