Is that "Accept all cookies" or "Accept all our terms, not just about cookies but also our rights to your first born"? Did you check?
My point is that an "accept all" reflex isn't necessarily safe even if you don't retain cookies.
Given that we are talking about a website, what is the worst legal enforceable thing you could agree to in this way?
Things like “rights to your first born” are illegal and unenforceable.
“you must visit the site everyday from now on” is unenforceable.
“or we close your account” - they don’t need your consent for that
