Can you really enforce a law without making sure you comply with it first? The European Commission sues 5 countries over not implementing the Cookie Law, disregarding the fact that some of its own sites are still not in compliance.

A month after webmasters were forced into complying with the EU Cookie Law, we take a look at who is doing what. From the BBC’s bold statement right down to Thomson Holiday’s almost invisible few words, find out who is in compliance and who is being a bit vague.

In May 2011, the European Commission passed the EU Cookie Law stating that every website that saved cookies to a user’s browser would need to get the user’s permission to do so before being allowed to. Without this permission they would be in breach of the law and could potentially be fined.
