- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 12955352, 6 years agoGood but needs a better method to not break sites. Currently twitter.com and tweakers.net are broken and the failure mode of landing on an unusable site leaving you with no clues is just awful.

posted 6 years agoTweakers.net works in the latest version. I don't get any reports about twitter. Like with any blocker, when you see a problem, you have to report it and disable the extension for that particular page/website, at least until it is solved. - Rated 4 out of 5by Azarilh, 6 years agoThe update pop ups are annoying.
EDIT: Yeah, it pop ups once. Still annoying.Developer response
posted 6 years agoThe update pop-up is set to be displayed only once. There may be something wrong with your browser, ie if you use sandboxing or a single browser profile across multiple devices. - Rated 4 out of 5by eriador, 6 years agoUpdate: the author decided to start sending custom headers to websites as explained at https://www.i-dont-care-about-cookies.eu/cookie-installing-permission-header/
This could be exploited as a fingerprinting vector, so make sure to disable those notifications in the addon's preferences if you're concerned about your privacy. - Rated 4 out of 5by Gordon Dry, 6 years agoPale Moon 28.4.1 x64
As soon as the addon was updated to 2.9.9, the browser behaved like a crawl.
Slow. Sluggish. Choppy.
One core full load, so 25% CPU usage all the time.
As soon as I downgraded back to 2.9.8 - issue gone immediately.
And I use this source, because Pale Moon does not support WebExtensions:

The idea is good, however it seems like it plainly hides the cookie warnings instead of accepting them.
This results in websites that are unusable. You click elements that don't react, you try to scroll but it won't work, etc. You refresh maybe thinking maybe something didn't load correctly, but nothing you do will fix the website, but disabling this addon and accepting the cookie notification.
It caused great frustration initially when I had no idea why can't use a website.
Edit:
@Kiko
Turns out I didn't even have the latest version because for some reason the minimum version is now 57. So in browser updates won't work on v56 that I use.
Edit2:
Now I reported them.Developer response
posted 6 years agoDid you report those websites? If not, report them, please.
Websites implement cookie warnings in literally tens of thousands of ways, so cathing them all is quite a task.
EDIT: Try now, please. I have enabled support for FF 56, although some (options related) features may not work properly. - Rated 4 out of 5by BroncoII, 6 years ago

- Rated 4 out of 5by fruity101079, 6 years agoA utiliser conjointement avec l'option de suppression automatiques des cookies a la fermeture de FF, sinon, trop dangereux de tout accepter.
- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13449340, 6 years agoJe viens de réactiver I don't care about cookies, mais j'ai un doute : dans le cas où il nous est demandé d'accepter les cookies, est-ce que le plug-in les accepte tous ? Est-ce qu'il ne peut pas au contraire nous aider à tous les refuser?
Par exemple, quand je vais sur Recode-Decode, sans I don't care about cookies, j'ai le choix entre "Accepter" ou "En savoir plus" sur les moyens de refuser (ce choix est déjà bien planqué). Est-ce que "I don't care about cookies" accepte tout à ma place? Ou bien agit-il comme Qookiefix qui rétablit le bouton "Refuser" (mais seulement sur les bannières Quantacast). J'aimerais bien que ça aille vers ça, un peu comme le faisais Self Destroying Cookie (mais Mozilla l'a condamné pour des problèmes de sécurité…)Developer response
posted 6 years agoDans les cas où le site ne fonctionne pas correctement sans accepter les cookies, le plug-in les accepte tous. Le site web dit :
"By using it, you explicitly ALLOW websites to do whatever they want with cookies they set on your computer". - Rated 4 out of 5by Neophile, 7 years agoIt used to be excellent and extremely easy to operate, but since last update it has become very bothersome reporting a cookie warning with filling several fields on a page and, incredibly, using latest Google captcha, which is the most stupid captcha ever seen, because it uses very small pictures with ridiculous microscopic details that we often can't see properly and go round and round verifying pictures. Crazy, really crazy. And, on top of all this, it asks for our e-mail!

There has been a much improved change since my comment, 3 days ago.
Before, when I tried to send a report it asked to complete the form fields. No more now.
The crazy Google captcha was now replaced, another great improvement.
It is very good when a developer listens to people, as in this case. I replaced the given 3 stars with the well deserved 5.Developer response
posted 7 years agoThis is not fair.
First of all, you don't have to fill any additional field, just submit the form. Email is optional for those who want a response. Captcha is here because of the spam protection, I used to get too much spam.
And you are right, that particular captcha really is the most annoying (and the most effective). I just changed it because of you ;)
EDIT: thanks, man! - Rated 4 out of 5by Rémy COSTA - Limpid IT, 7 years agoSupprime la plupart des bannières d'autorisation de cookies.
- Rated 4 out of 5by MacGivre, 7 years agoAu temps pour moi, le problème vient de Quantcast depuis l'application du RGPD.
J'ai installé une appli qui me redonne le contrôle de certains cookies sur ces sites pourris : https://addons.mozilla.org/fr/firefox/addon/qookiefix/
Je garde "I don't carre..." car il fait bien son boulot sur les autres sites.
Merci - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13815941, 7 years ago
