I want to keep track of how many times a blog post is viewed on my site. Sounds like a reasonable thing to do, right? In order to prevent double counting visitors, a cookie is set. Some people say that EU laws require me to show you a banner to get consent for this use of cookies. That’s just stupid, which is why you are not seeing any banner on this site.
