The cookie monster shows its teeth

If anyone had any doubt that the Information Commissioner means business over new EU Cookie legislation, then the situation is very clear now.

The ICO has sent a warning letter to 75 companies regarding the new rules, which I blogged about recently.

The ‘victims’ included Facebook, John Lewis and even the Cabinet Office.

If the organisations don’t respond, they could face an investigation and potential fines of up to £500,000.

You have been warned!
