Juan Pablo Santos Rodríguez resolved JSPWIKI-1117.

    Resolution: Won't Fix

As noted on the [associated PR|https://github.com/apache/jspwiki/pull/44#issuecomment-791912513],

JSPWiki always uses Cookies, a user cannot turn it 100% off. 2 Cookies are always present: one to keep track of your SESSION (needed for editing), and one to store the user's preferences.

The initial user preference cookie values are determined by the admin setting of your site,
 and are changed whenever the user modifies them.

This means that a user can never "opt-out". A user has to accept ("ok understood" button) or click the ('learn more") button.

Other cookies managed by JSPWiki (eg created by other InsertPage plugins with a show='once') can be viewed or deleted on the User Preferences page.

As on first visit, the user preferences cookie is created with values obtained from the backend.  By design it's mandatory for JSPWiki in order to behave as intended, and given that the other cookies can be deleted within JSPWiki we're setting the issue as won't fix (note that JSPWIKI-1447 states a different, related to cookie handling bug, that will be fixed).

> The wiki pages pop up a message about cookies.
> However there is no option to reject cookies, and it looks like some cookies are set before the user agrees to the use of cookies.
