What is the main purpose if we decline cookie in websites?

In my website i have cookie decline button to decline cookies. Once users decline cookie in my site Google Analytics will not work in my website. I set the code like that.

Apart from that i checked some other sites that have some option in cookie policy page to hide google adverts, facebook, twitter and youtube. Is that necessary? Actually what is the main purpose of that?

Ads are intrusive, so EU wanted them out, marketers wouldn't agree, so they wanted to make consent mandatory. I think you could still use cookies, but if you do, you have to take consent, and it is best not find a workaround. I am sure you have already seen this, if not, here is a guidelines document I would want to read before I make any modifications on my website. There is no specific mention of an HTTP cookie website, but please be careful with these rules, anybody(your competitor per say) could complain on your website, and it may be investigated. I do not know of any serious adherence cases, but there could be compliance issues. Good luck!
