EU May Outlaw Cookies
Millennium writes: "According to Yahoo News, The European Commission is considering a privacy directive which, among other things, completely bans the use of cookies. Forgive me for saying so, but considering all the legitimate uses of cookies, isn't banning them outright going just a bit too far?" Update: 10/31 19:21 GMT by M : The submitter's write-up is wrong. Read the story. Keep in mind, as usual, that a "news" story whose sole source is an executive with an agenda to push is unlikely to portray the situation accurately.
nay, tasty though they may be, the side effects of tooth decay and obesity far outweigh any legitimate use they may have...
Either give it away or get top dollar, but never sell yourself cheap.
Cookies and donuts.

It's typical, EU allways stick its nose where it shouldn't be, like withe the cucombers they are trying to ban the ugly ones, apples when they are to small was to be banned as well. Considering that the EU was formed to make european trading more easy, I just don't get it, ok the cucombers and apples - we need standards but this is like the european curency, police and army ideas... they just don't make sense. actualy they do if we want something like the states, and speaking not only for my self - and with all respect for the states - we don't, I'm proud of the Danish flag, the language, the curency and the culture, of course without becoming a racist, actualy i welcome foreigners to Denmark as long they behave, if they have danish citizenship they are to be treated just like any other criminal with danish citizen ship.
