what exactly do cookies do and what happens if I deny the cookie pop up spam on websites?
In: Mathematics
Cookies are small text files that websites use to remember details about who you are and what you do on the site. They can be used for everything from remembering who you are so you don’t have to login next time, to noting you seemed interested in basketball so you get ads about basketball.
The popups aren’t spam, they are legal requirements in certain places to get your consent for websites to track things about you. Some cookies (like the login ones) can’t be turned off. Others, like the ad trackers, can.
