Is it just me / my machine?
In the last week or so I can't browse without a cookies or privacy notice coming up requiring me to re-confirm all my 'choices' . It doesn't seem to recognise that I confirmed my choices 10 minutes previously!
Anybody else getting the same thing?
All well here
Nope, never had that on phone or computer.
Not every website I re-visit, and not every new website I visit, but I do certainly get asked about cookie preferences. I use Firefox browser on Win10, but I also have a MX Linux machine, using Firefox, and I don't recall being asked, but I don't use that one very much.
I think I've seen something similar when Firefox upgrades itself. I'm guessing the cookies contain something linked to the browser version.
Another option could be that there's a limited time that the cookies are valid for, set by the web server.

You can set you browser to delete cookies when you exit. Maybe check the settings?
I think it started occurring shortly after a European change in 'cookie' legislation. I get significantly more cookie confirmation requests now too.
Yep - PITA, and for a long time as well it seems.
Almost every site apart from this forum.
I generally don't have to re-confirm if I return to the site in one session of browsing, though.
Oh I assumed it was on the forum...? Yes, cookie permissions are always springing up elsewhere.
Same here, cookies at many sites, I would have thought that for forums and other sites that require log ins that it would be a simple matter to set cookie preferences at first registration.
