European Cookies?

So, I log in to my blog and see this today:

European Union laws require you to give European Union visitors information about cookies used on your blog. In many cases, these laws also require you to obtain consent. 
As a courtesy, we have added a notice on your blog to explain Google's use of certain Blogger and Google cookies, including use of Google Analytics and AdSense cookies. 
You are responsible for confirming this notice actually works for your blog, and that it displays. If you employ other cookies, for example by adding third party features, this notice may not work for you. Learn more about this notice and your responsibilities.


UGHHHH.

Basically, this means a pop up reminds European viewers that OMG THIS PAGE USES COOKIES (which every damned website does, it being the easiest and best way to store info).

Here is a very good article about how this is ridiculous.

Please read!
