How are smaller companies and regular internet users supposed to trust automated copyright systems, when screwups like Microsoft's copyright infringement robots requesting to leave Bing. com out from Google's search results happen?

Gotta love the oatmeal (though when I clicked in I was expecting a comic about the physical shoppingcart used at supermarkets)

How to make your shopping cart suck less - The Oatmeal

Is it still fun to be a webdev while the EU anti-cookie law is being applied in more and more member states? And many even more restrictive than the EU says. Some examples:

- EU requires opt-out possibility for all cookies. Fair nuff.
- The Netherlands requires opt-in for all cookies not required for the technical functioning of a login system or shopping cart. But opt-in for all advertising, profile gathering and analytics cookies
- Denmark apparently requires a two step process before any cookie is allowed.

And I'm thinking; are the systems we're used to making today even still possible under this new law? When will new patterns start to emerge that capture the request for cookie permission in existing patterns?
