by Firefox user 15109409, 5 years agoThis addon automatically accepts cookies:
"Starting with version 3.0.2, this extension notifies websites about which cookies the visitor allows them to install. By knowing this, websites can skip displaying the cookie warning and act according to the given permission. As a result, you will be bothered by cookie warnings even less. "
Privacy oriented users, please bear in mind the following:
The Verge shows a tracking-consent message when visiting the site from the EU. Most people will click "I Accept" to make it go away, but if you don't and hide the message via CSS, you won't be tracked and the site is way faster: 32 vs 5 secs load time 61 vs 2 JS files 2 vs 1 MB

Ublock Origin cookies block removes the CSS and does not accept the cookies, you can also use the element picker.
[update: looks like I have no clue what I'm talking about, so I recommend you ignore my comment above]

Developer response
posted 5 years agoOk, one by one...
1. This addon automatically accepts cookies WHEN it is necessary for the website to function properly. Mostly it just hides cookie warnings.
2. Quoted message has nothing to do with automatically accepting cookies. It is about notifying websites what you allow them to do so they may skip displaying a cookie warning alltogether if they want to improve user experience.
3. Cookie warning on theverge.com is not auto-accepted, it's just hidden with this extension, so I don't know why you are writing about it.
Regards,
Daniel
SMALL UPDATE: there may be some important features that don't work properly on theverge.com without auto-accepting cookie policy, just like on some of their partners websites. In that case I'd need to auto-accept it. For now, the cookie warning will just remain hidden.

- Rated 1 out of 5by mreight, a month agoNon è più buona come un tempo. Si scorda spesso di levare la barra dei cookies
- Rated 3 out of 5by Drago, a month agoMight addon and usually helpful in doing its job.
But it blocks playback on Deezer! Cause Deezer allow streaming if the cookie consent was accepted only and the banner was removed without further action by the addon, streaming is impossible right now. - Rated 5 out of 5by Wayvii, 2 months ago

- Rated 2 out of 5by Phil, 2 months agoIt breaks a lot of websites, making them unscrollable, I've had much better results with uBlockOrigin.
The function to report a cookie warning is broken.
In uBlockOrigin you can block "Cookie Notices" in the Filter list. - Rated 2 out of 5by sadfvgbnm, 3 months agodoesnt work in site / broke em totally:

- Rated 3 out of 5by Benjamin, 4 months agoI can't report a problem with a site.
Reason: The captcha image on the site that is used for reporting isn't loading.

Problem with other sites/the extension:
The cookie warning is blocked, but there is also no scroll bar and I can't scroll down, even with the mouse. After allowing and answering the cookie warning, the scroll bar appears and I am able to scroll down.
I use the add-in in Firefox 130.0.1 (64-Bit)
