Honestly interested why this was downvoted, which yes makes for boring reading but I hope it results in some interesting argument. If you need a cookie banner it means you are collecting users' personal information. For many websites this is totally unnecessary. I do not like it if a website tells me how important my privacy is to them and then asks me to accept sharing all the information they can about me with other commercial entities. For no functional reason. I don't want to press accept that. As a insignificant little protest I want press reject. I want their statistics to show that some people don't like data being shared.

"I do not care about cookies", when it cannot just hide a popup will accept the terms and removes the option for this small protest from me. That is why I do not use it. Is this somehow wrong, offensive, off-topic?
