Just open dev tools, storage, nuke them
I’m using Consent-O-Matic and it works surprisingly well.
Why would you put extra effort into telling them you want cookies? Just block everything.
While you’re wasting your time on clicking shitty popups, I’m already reading the page.
What browsers really should implement is to store all third party cookies in a jar for the specific site I am on until I navigate to another domain or close the tab. The cookies are saved and returned to the 3rd party sites embedded in the site I use. But if the same 3rd party sites are also embedded in other sites, they have to send fresh cookies.
Cookies become useless for tracking and all the legislation specifically around them can be axed.I just use the I Don’t Care About Cookies addon.
I don’t know if it’s just agreeing or disagreeing, but I suspect they’re all selling your data regardless of what you pick.
ALT+F4 also works or cmd+Q
just hide cookie-related shit with ublock origin
I am authoring an IETF draft to help with this. The agreement formats recently got approved by IEEE.
Oh, where can I inform myself more about your work?
The main site: https://myterms.info/
My draft, which will likely be introduced to the list this week with a BOF (meeting) request for IETF 126 in Vienna: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-curtis-myterms/
It’s focused on contractual agreements overall, but it supports machine negotiation based on headers, which is how our reference implementations handles cookie banners.
I love the concept of “Legitimate interest”… Like, why the hell anyone even consider storing my data in ILLEGITIMATE interest?
I don’t even know what legitimate interest means. Are they saying they’re going to sell my data to someone if they have a legit interest in my data? Who would buy data if they DIDNT have a legit interest in it? I don’t get it
I hoped it would be mentioned before, but in the EU It shall be as easy to withdraw as to give consent.
Report such sites for non-compliance.
- install ublock origin
- enable “cookie notices” filters
Gasp
I’m so dumb. I didn’t even know I had to enable that… God it should physically hurt to be this stupid
Not really, its kind of one those things; if you don’t know, how could you? Unless you’re the kinda person to sit there and read every option of everything.
What if I want it to hurt? :3

https://*to your filter list.lmaoooooo asked and answered
Surprisingly, it doesn’t actually block sites, it just makes them all look like they’re from 1992.
http://*really blocks them.@helpImTrappedOnline @yakko when the internet was gud
Waow
We and our 19,324 legitimate business partners use cookies to offer you the best experience possible!
Now, to disable all cookies, you have to click all 19,324 toggles
consent-o-matic my goat
I just wish it was a native feature of browsers instead of something that is part of the page. Like, all the other permissions - camera, microphone, Bluetooth, USB, etc access - are native, why can’t be the “hey let me write some crap onto your device that other pages may or may not read” and “hey lemme see what I wrote onto your device when invoked from another website” requests be native too?
Librewolf doesn’t save cookies by default, and you can toggle them on if you need to
Because it would be harder, there are 2 types of cookies: essential ones, necessary for the site to work correctly (remember login, preferences and a bunch of other things) and there are other cookies that are not necessary, and there is no real way to add this distinction since the browser doesn’t really have any way to understand which are which; Also, before anyone reply “but if i don’t want to remember my login?” Some sites still write temporary cookies to work
You can also see what cookies are wrote on your device with Developer tools
Adding support for two types of cookies instead of one (and having a default the browser sends to the site) isn’t black magic fuckery or some unachievable alchemical process. It’s done easily.
Yep, but would companies use them? I doubt, they want profit, they ain’t using that and companies often define standards, so the only hope is to propose to the EU to enforce it or smth
(for websites you don’t use often)
- Open link in private tab
- Accept all
I like the button that says reject non essential. That should be a required button.
It is actually.
Enforcement is crap.
