The one at Reuters isn't that much better. If you refuse, Reuters will immediately forget your "Managed Consent" and slam you in the face again on your next visit.

I suspect they have no problem remembering your consent forever, it's just refusal that gets immediately forgotten.

If you reject their use of cookies how are they supposed to remember your rejection the next time you visit?

No offense, but are you sure you grok the whole 'cookie' concept?

If the law doesn't make a single exception so the webpage can store a boolean value into a cookie to know this user doesn't want to be bothered with any _other_ cookies the law is wrong.

Any single exception can be a privacy attack surface. The law is correct.

It does make exception for cookies used to make the site function.
