What's the difference between this and "I still don't care about cookies"[0]? [0] https://github.com/OhMyGuus/I-Still-Dont-Care-About-Cookies
It rejects cookies & reduces how much you are tracked, rather than accepting all tracking & cookies.
uBlock Origin already has this. Enable the "Cookie notices" and "Annoyances" filters in uBlock Origin's settings. Bonus pro-tip: Firefox for Android supports uBlock Origin, which means you can get rid of these godawful banners on mobile, too. Only iOS users are stuck having to put up with them.
Orion for iOS supports Firefox and Chrome extensions.
Worth it IMO but I really wish there was a better way to submit bug reports than creating an account on their site. Fuck that dark pattern
And still, we get consent banners. Wasn’t I clear when i said don’t track?
I don’t get it. All browsers have a “do not track” toggle implemented. And still, we get consent banners. Wasn’t I clear when i said don’t track?

You need someone powerful like Google to say they will lower Page Rank for sites that don't comply with the Do Not Track flag.

when you say 'dont track', it seems like you could really mean 'dont not track', which would make more sense. since thats the safer option, maybe i should assume that. or maybe bring up a dialog that asks 'do you fail to consent to the lack of not tracking'
Cookie banners are a bad/wrong solution to the underlying problem, but it's the dark patterns within that really piss me off. I shouldn't have to invest deep cognitive attention to "only accept mandatory" but if you're not careful many dialogs will trick you into clicking accept all after you go to the trouble to untoggle all the optional shit. The answer is to use isolation containers, aggressively reset them and no…
Annoying banners increase pressure on people to contact their representatives to overturn those laws, allowing the operators to abuse the data
I don't know why more people don't use Brave - you can turn all the annoying crypto/ad stuff off and it never bothers you about it again.

Hiding the popup is not the same as clicking reject. It should be but it's not.
