hmm i wonder what the best way of adding a cookie notice to the yinglet clicker is

cause your contribution count is saved to your machine and that is illegal afaict unless i tell you about it

@mynotaurus You're storing it in localStorage, so it's perfectly fine :3

@arch OBJECTION! (hm we should get an ace attorney objection emote lol) localstorage counts as cookies under the cookie law

@mynotaurus ...wat why lmao

@arch both can be used for fingerprinting, so presumably its to stop the loophole of using localstorage as cookies?

@mynotaurus set it off by default, add a preference window that enables the feature, in the description for the feature make sure it says "uses cookies", and that's probably good enough legally. or you can make like a tiny window that says "this feature uses cookies, click OK to accept" on the first click of the clicker. idk I was thinking about this for my dark-mode switcher at one point bc it used one cookie, but I removed that from my site a while ago on accident and haven't bothered putting it back lmao

@mynotaurus make it an offering of cookies that the yinglet gives you in payment for pets?

@mynotaurus also lmao its hosted in the USA there's no laws here except for all of the stuff that you would never make a law for unless you were insanely corrupt

so you can totally just fukken not do it lmao

@dragonminded us sites still have to do it
i guess maybe you might not see it cause its only a legal requirement to do it for eu users though

@mynotaurus i mean it's enforced through fines. like, is some commission in the EU going to go after a personal site? hosted in the USA? and not on California soil (the only state with GDPR-like regulations)?

@mynotaurus i fail to see how they have any sort of teeth in this situation

@dragonminded added a message anyway just in case
