I’m so fed up of these cookie popups requiring a few extra clicks to reject, are there any extensions that will automatically opt out or reject additional cookies?
Ublock origin, using the “annoyences” filter list
akaik that doesn’t reject the cookies, which are accepted by default.
uBlock Origin to block 3rd party JS.
NoScript to specifically allow certain functions of certain domains serving JS.
Both of these combined make sure I never see such banners because, well, no JS allowed for most things.
Also Cookie Autodelete with Firefox containers. Even if someone happened to store cookies in my browser, they are gone by the time I close the tab. Also FF containers prevent the proliferation of cookies across tabs if in different profiles.
As an aside you can ditch Noscript if you put ublock into medium mode.
I have tried to do this, and unless I’m missing something very obvious, this is incorrect (happy to be corrected!).
I generally tend to use hard mode with uBlock Origin, and for a while I tried to use it without NoScript, however I realised that even though I can allow/block certain domains (and I really like the toggle to disable all 3rd party domains in uBlock), I cannot fine-tune the capabilities allowed for each domain.
For example (on the “hard-mode” page for uBlock Origin on Github):
uBlock Origin didn’t let me disallow certain capabilities for this specific subdomain (which NoScript did).
Also, I have sometimes come across discrepancies in the domains that each extension displays to me. All of this considered, I’m running both. Please let me know if there is a way around it, since I would like to simplify my life with just one extension, however I do not see how the void left behind by uninstalling NoScript can be filled by uBlock.
Cheers!
Sorry, I’ve not played with hard mode. I did use to use uMatrix, but as that’s been deprecated and I find medium mode sufficient I can’t be of much help, I’m afraid. Hope you manage figure it out.
Not an answer, but a warning: I’ve tried a couple of them and they may break some sites and I found very difficult to debug (probably because how many addons I have). If you notice weird things, try disabling the addon.
I just installed the recommmended Consent-O-Matic and it does work in the only website I remember was broken with other addons. Looks promising, thanks!
Sounds good, thank you!

This is it. Lots of complicated answers in this thread. It’s built into uBlock, just not on by default.

Thanks will look into this
I use in Vivaldi blocker this filterlists, which can be added also in uBO, they are working fine.
I’m guessing that would also work on ublock origin on Firefox?
I think so, at least for me it works fine, never seen a cookie advice again. Try it Alternatively you can use this extension apart of uBO, in case when the site require to desactivate the adblocker.

One of those extensions recommended by Mozilla.
Use uBlock. Either with a list or learn to use the selector tool to remove the overlays/scripts directly. That is what I do for the GF’s PC so she can watch YT.
Edit: It looks like an eyedrop tool. So it might also be called that.
I was hoping there is one that works for all pages without needing to select them manually
Fair, but you will be surprised how often people simply revisit the same sites, over and over. You do it once, it is done for life. Also, it takes like 3-4 seconds. It is worth the investment of a few seconds. Or at least, that is what I have found.

Oh nice! Can’t wait for it to come to stable build!
I don’t know of any extension that DENY cookies for firefox but it’s built into #duckduckgo
