From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I think (and hope) tha the logical conclusion of the DNT lawsuit v LinkedIn will be that DNT will be deemed necessary and sufficient, and that this setting will replace all the cookie banners. But even if that comes to pass it will be years before all the banners will be gone.
