The Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) has sent a clear message to UK website owners to “try harder” on compliance with the new cookies rules. The ICO’s “half term report” provides further guidance on how website owners can comply with the new requirement to obtain user consent to the use of cookies; a requirement that was introduced in May 2011.

However, it is unlikely that website owners will find the answer they were looking for.
