Quick Answer
IDEA — awaiting write. Anchor: The Digital Omnibus proposes moving cookie consent rules into the GDPR itself via new Articles 88a and 88b. It estimates consent will no longer be required for 60% of cookies. However, banners are still needed — the proposal requires single-click accept/reject buttons, prohibits re-asking for 6 months after refusal, and mandates respect for browser-level signals like Global Privacy Control. The GDPR Omnibus is NOT yet finalized as of May 2026.
