Hey HN, creator here. I made this satirical project for me to learn how to make NPM modules and my goal was to release it in one day. It’s not for serious use. The code isn’t great. Like I said, I’m still learning. Here’s the GitHub: https://github.com/rockhopper72/no-cookie Pull requests welcome. Thanks!

Kind of annoying that I have to hit the “X” every time I refresh the page or visit the site. Could you make it so the page stores some kind of state in my browser so I don’t have to do it manually every time?

Well, that would be ironically if a website announces not to store cookies (as a user I also expect nothing else on my computer) but then makes use of some pesistent storage. Let's be honest: These badges which consume screen spaces are annoying and nobody ever reads them. I did not realize what it says (I automatically clicked the close box) before I read the main text of that No-Cookie website!

Rather amusingly, my fairly simple ad-blocker is already blocking your no cookie banner.

Which adblocker are you using?
