GOOGLE SPEAK: WHAT DOES IT MEAN?




I just found this on the top of my blog comments page and have no fucking idea what it means!

Is blogger adding cookies to my web page - is there something I am suppose to do?

What the fuck?

  1. Don't worry; it's legit. You don't have to do anything and you'll never even see the notice they're talking about, nor will any visitor to your blog who isn't from the EU (they only show it to EU visitors).

    Cookies are snippets of code that track users' information, and they're built into a whole bunch of tools, including Blogger. Blogger is just covering their asses to comply with the EU regulations regarding cookies, even if your site doesn't actually use cookies at all.

    Keep calm and blog on... :-)
