by Chronogroumph, 7 years agoLa RGPD rend le contrôle des données privées aux utilisateurs d'Internet. Utiliser ce module revient donc à accepter "bêtement" tous les cookies, même les plus intrusifs et rendre disponible toute sa vie privée, tout en perdant conscience des risques éventuels.
A se demander si de tels logiciels ne sont pas conçus et proposés par les plus grands bénéficiaires du vol des données privées...

posted 7 years agoI respect your opinion. However, as someone who protects the privacy in many more practical and sufficient ways, I don't want to click the same cookie warning button on 150 websites daily, nor read privacy policies all day long.
Don't get me wrong: I am all for the privacy protection. I just think displaying a cookie warning everywhere is not a good and practical solution. You don't want to be notified about dangers when crossing the street and asked to agree or sign the document which states all the dangers of it, right? It would be too much, because you already know it, and you don't want to waste time you don't have, right?
The same goes for internet privacy: education is the key - the right kind of education which takes place in the right kind of institutions and not on the websites themselves (for some websites, it's almost like forcing a thief to explain what he's going to steal from you on purpose).
Btw, this extension is created long before the GDPR :)

- Rated 1 out of 5by asdkofoaweifiwae, 8 days ago1) Causes problems on websites and breaks them. betterworldbooks.com The issue isn't that it causes this but that it requires you to dig through every extension to guess what's breaking your websites.
2) just found out the extension was acquired to potentially farm data? - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 17375526, 12 days agoThis extension has been acquired by Avast (which itself has been acquired by Gen Digital Inc., a large tech conglomerate) and I simply don't trust Avast with my data.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18838370, 2 months agoDon't bother with this and instead install "I still don't care about cookies"- a community driven and open-source version of this add-on which nowadays probably gathers your data.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 16768472, 2 months agoHas been taken over/sold out to some company who only uses it to steal data and doesn't even maintain the software.
Because of a Firefox bug it's still being shown as recommended and checked by Mozilla in your add-on library, even though they removed that flag some time ago. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 18310197, 2 months ago
