Too often, the consent dialogue takes over a second to load, and when you finally click 'accept' there is a little spinner for what seems like ages before the dialogue goes away and you get to see the content you came to see.
Can we simply detect the "<script src=consent.js..." tag, and simply not load it for the most common and annoying types of popup?
I like this, but would like it to avoid the loading time of the consent popups.

I keep considering this and similar tools, but I have a concern that they will miss things and effectively opt-in when I want them to opt-out. For instance: if the code/config for a particular site or family of sites becomes out of date for a while due to said site(s) adding a bunch of “legitimate interest”¹ checkboxes, then I may have just given consent (or passed by the opportunity to object) without knowing. ----…
It should be called Reject-O-matic or you might get the impression that it’s ever used to consent to anything…
While you aren't wrong, somebody might get the dumb idea that "If a tool instantly rejects the consent then the user hasn't truly consciously made a rejection." This is the flimsy excuse made not to respect the Do Not Track header. By making it so that it's a tool for expressing the user's opinion, be it negative or positive, it becomes harder to spin it as being a tool that does not actually embody the user's view.
Not exactly. The issue was that a specific version of IE enabled that header without giving the user a choice. If a user explicitly chooses to toggle the header, or install an add-on, then that argument would not hold up.

2. Navigate to the "Filter Lists" tab
3. Scroll down to the "Cookie notices" section
4. Check the box that says "EasyList/uBO – Cookie Notices"
'I still don't care about cookies' works on almsot every website I browse. This extension on the other hand used to work maybe on a third, don't know if it improved but I would suggest the first if you're fed up with the cookie popup.
if i recall this just closes the cookie popup
but if you want some functionality you may need to accept some basic cookie like "remember me" for logging in, etc?
this is what the extension is great for
not sure if you can use both

For the GDPR, that argument would fail immediately. Since the GDPR requires consent to be explicitly granted, and neither conscious rejection nor automatic rejection would constitute an explicit granting of consent, the site would not have a consent to track.
DNT could be mandated as a prompt instead of ever included by default. Or does the GDPR require explicit consent prompt and selection per domain?
A user giving consent to A does not translate into consent for .
And yes, the default for such consent questions must be "no"
This is great. Is there any work being done to make something similar part of the browser API?

Regarding 2: That's the fun part! Manual consent isn't required for functional cookies, only for marketing garbage that doesn't help you at all.
What if the goal of the site is to monetize views so it is economically viable to produce content? Then GP's point towards 'it should work better' implies it works over the long-term and not a single interaction. I find ads frustrating as well, but it is a powerful monetization strategy and that doesn't have a substitute.
Google earned billions of dollars doing contextual ads before tracking user's every motion became the norm
