Fair point, but "cookies" didn't mean anything to the average user either, and "cookie consent" banners are the norm now.

I think very few people would argue that cookie consent banners in the form in which they are the norm are a good thing just like permission prompts for microphone access are.

Mobile apps require location permissions to use Bluetooth right now, even though that's a hard to understand situation for average people.

If a feature can be used to track people, you have to flag it off or else you are just contributing to the tech Big Brother apparatus.
