Kate Klonick advances a clear and uncompromising argument: cookie banners
should be abolished. The paper frames them not as a minor usability
nuisance but as a systemic failure of modern technology regulation.
Designed to enhance privacy and user autonomy, they have instead produced
performative compliance, weakened the meaning of consent, degraded the user
experience, and impeded more effective regulatory solutions.
