  • Потрясающая педантичность - Excellent plugin

    Я узнал об этом новом плагине вчера (середина июля 2026 года) и вижу, что он чётко отвечает на строгие требования Российского ФЗ, действительно обязывающего сайты иметь такие баннеры, а не просто баннеры с одной кнопкой вроде: "Хорошо, согласен". Плагин стал одной из причин того, что я смогу разблокировать свой сайт не опасаясь получить существенный штраф за небольшое формальное нарушение. Надеюсь, он будет радовать меня и далее. Успехов Вам, создатели плагина! Good luck! Great job!
