In version 4.9.6. WordPress added certain privacy « features » to core. These include a Privacy Policy page, and an opt-in check box in the comments field. 4.9.8. removed the comment field, but also removed comment cookies from not logged in users, causing some sites to break. Useful for testing, IoT, sites in Nevada USA, or for other sites that do not need GDPR related features.
