av Firefox user 17109352, 4 år sidanAs of November of 2021, I ("technical data-security" person in public sector) see the legal situation for this addon as follows:
Lets start with a big con about entering legal contracts by surfing in the world wide web:
- Absolutely violates the " informed consent" required by GDPR by sometimes giving consent but hiding what I actually agreed to. Legally, neither the user nor the website now know if anyone is at fault for aggregating and using personal data. I can neither exercise my rights to be informed or correct data that was collected, nor can the website owner use or sell my data in good conscience.
- The developers website acknowledges this schism: "Please educate yourself about cookie related privacy issues and ways to protect yourself and your data. For example, you can block 3rd party cookies, install ad blocking extensions and then block tracking tools, delete browsing data regularly, enable Tracking Protection in your browser etc."
Which is the right way to handle cookie banners. This is the worst way for all parties involved. To reiterate: even the website owners get a poisoned gift by receiving non-legally-valid consent, and the user waives all control over their personal rights without even knowing, how that might hurt him or her whenever this add-on allows some tracking cookies to be stored.
Pros:
+ Visually, seems to work. (Legally, see above. Browser Cookies are not about cookies or computer science, but the actual subject matter is keeping others from knowing what kind of stigmatised interests or ridiculed condition you keep to yourself or a very limited audience. By not caring, you shoot yourself in the foot.)
+ The developer actually reads this and reacts to it.
UPDATE:
Starting in December, this Addon will probably need to register as a "Personal Information Management Systems" (PIMS) in germany, to finally become legal. Let's hope that it won't be an extensive and thereby expensive certification. If @Kiko fails to do that, this app will still work ins legally gray area are finally become illegal in germany and should regionally be blocked to avoid anyone sueing Kiko or the end-users.
The EUs info on that:

This might even of interest for power users or people who actually read EULAs.

Svar frå utviklaren
posta 4 år sidanThe extension's name says it all - it's for people who don't care much about the consent the website will get, the data it will collect nor what it will do with that data. If you do care that much, it's probably not for you. You didn't rate how it does what it is for, but rather how you feel about the overall idea.
You were right about the somewhat poor description here on Mozilla though, I adjusted it. Thanks for that!

- Vurdering: 3 av 5av Olivier E., 11 dagar sidanUsed to be a very useful extension coupled with another extension that delete the cookies as soon as I leave a website. However in the past few month I noticed a lot of broken website on Firefox until I realized the issue was this extension...I had to remove it...I'm annoyed to see the banners back but at least I can browse properly.

- Vurdering: 1 av 5av ab-tools, ein månad sidanThis often doesn't work and reporting cookies banners leads to page with database error. Use add-on "I still don't care about cookies" by Guus instead!

- Vurdering: 5 av 5av Lilith D. Bracken, ein månad sidanThis extension makes browsing so much smoother by automatically getting rid of those annoying cookie pop-ups. Almost every site is covered, so you can focus on the content instead of constantly clicking “accept” or “reject.” It works quietly in the background, doesn’t slow anything down, and makes visiting websites much less frustrating. Perfect for anyone who just wants a cleaner, faster browsing experience.

- Vurdering: 2 av 5av BrianG, 3 månader sidanUsed to work fairly well but now I mainly notice it because it breaks various websites such as Tesco Bank, making the site completely unusable.
I won't be using it anymore. - Vurdering: 3 av 5av Quyu, 4 månader sidanраньше работало отлично, но сейчас половина сайтов не работает с этим расширением

- Vurdering: 2 av 5av faelpinho, 6 månader sidanIt's a functional and cool extension, but it adds the class "idc0_350" into any page, even sites without this warning about cookies, causing bugs in dark themes. I'll uninstall from now.
