What the actual fuck The Verge?! You have over 500 partners who need access to my "essential" cookies?

I mean, thanks for showing me the numbers on how insane data sharing is, but really? And those are the ones I can't opt out of?

Do they count like every employee as a partner, or is my data really being shared with hundreds of other businesses?

A screenshot of The Verge's cookie consent page, displaying options to manage consent preferences. At the top is a button labeled 'Allow All' in bold purple, followed by a section titled 'Manage Consent Preferences.' The 'Strictly Necessary Cookies' option, marked as 'Essential,' is already enabled and notes that 517 partners can use this purpose. Below that, toggles for 'Functional Cookies,' 'Performance Cookies,' 'Social Media Cookies,' 'Targeting Cookies,' and 'Measure content performance' are all turned off, each with a different number of partners listed—ranging from 329 to 786. At the bottom are options to 'Reject All' or 'Confirm My Choices,' both in purple buttons. The page is powered by OneTrust.

When companies say “We take your privacy seriously” what they really mean is “We take your privacy. Seriously.”
