Given that cookies are just one of many ways you can be tracked on the web, isn't the who cookie banner thing kind of pointless to begin with? You can be identified by the fonts on your system, browser size, add-ons, and canvas fingerprint, WebGL fingerprint, screen resolution, time zone offset, hardware specs, what peripherals are plugged-in... It goes on and on.

We don't need tracking cookie banners, we need tracking everything banners.
