If you go to uBlock Origin’s settings and then select ‘Filter lists’, there’s a list maintained by EasyList and another by AdGuard that both block cookie notices. To my understanding, this isn’t enabled by default (at least it wasn’t when I installed uBO).
Apologies if this is common knowledge; I didn’t know about it until recently.
Why YSK: Cookie consent pop-ups are annoyances full of dark patterns designed to frustrate you into affirmatively opting into superfluous data collection and letting companies profit off your information. Saving just a few seconds on pages you browse adds up, and this is especially true if you use something like Cookie AutoDelete that makes your answers to these pop-ups transient.
Can anyone recommend a good self destruction cookie add on for Firefox?
Or a browser better than Firefox and Chrome, both for Linux and for Android?
Much appreciated!
LibreWolf is a fork from Firefox. It is a much better alternative for privacy, and deletes cookies by default. You can also configure which pages you want to maintain cookies, e.g. for automatic login (if that’s something you want)
I like that option!
my solution is to use container tabs with temporary containers. every new tab or a different website gets a fresh session with no cookies.
For FireFox Cookie AutoDelete.
Yes, this one. It’s one of my three essential extensions: uBlock Origin, NoScript, and Cookie AutoDelete.
Thanks!
If I recall, there’s actually a setting in Firefox that automatically deletes all cookies when you close the browser.
