At least here in the EU the ePrivacy directive and to a lesser extent the GDPR generally require that cookies have a limited lifetime depending on their function, to eg. prevent companies just attaching a stable identifier to every random passerby essentially forever. @Sunny@slrpnk.net, if you're feeling particularly mildly infuriated you could email the German Data Protection Authority, there's a good chance the cookie could attract the Eye of Sauron

I'm not annoyed, I'm not using this VPN service, only doing research. However, I would appreciate it if you could link me to what you refer to with GDPR and ePrivacy setting a limited cookie lifetime!

[–] hydroptic@sopuli.xyz 4 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago) (1 children)

Sure! This page has some general info: https://gdpr.eu/cookies/

The directive itself is kind of involved because it goes pretty deep into what its aim is and eg. what sort of information can be considers an identifier, and it's actually quite well argued and worth a read if that sort of thing is your, er, thing: https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/ALL/?uri=CELEX%3A32002L0058 (you need to scoll aaalll the way down to be able to show the body text). I had to deal with this stuff professionally when I was a CTO for a company with some stricter than average privacy requirements due to the field, and I was pleasantly surprised to find out how much sense ePrivacy and GDPR actually make

Ayy thanks a lot for that, much appreciated! Have a great day 🌻

Jes but the company showed in OPs Image is a cookie of a German company. Otto de is like a German Amazon. And it is a GmbH so it's probably registered in Germany.

Which is why I said to contact the German DPA
