To which I'd say: they shouldn't even see the cookie banner in that case. DNT alone is enough.
And if I say "yes, actually, even though it was very rude of you to ask, given the shirt that I am wearing...in fact, I would like to have sex with you," then you should at least have the decency to wait for me to take my shirt off before having sex with me.
