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?

@Weslee consent-o-matic, made by @midasnouwens https://consentomatic.au.dk. the one recommended below auto accepts them or blocks the notice, while consent-o-matic sends the legally binding reject signal.

Been using this a couple of weeks and it is great. Looking forward to more add-ons like this coming to Firefox for Android.

This add-on is built and maintained by workers at Aarhus University in Denmark. We are privacy researchers that got tired of seeing how companies violate the EU's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Because the organisations that enforce the GDPR do not have enough resources, we built this add-on to help them out.

Nice!

Does it work for Firefox on Android?

Extensions will soon be ported to mobile Firefox, if the developers do it

You can already use most extensions with Firefox mobile but its a pain in the ass... You have to create an add-on collection... Mozilla is corrupted to the bone nowadays

Having a harder, unofficial way currently and soon an easy, official one is corrupt?

[–] ragica@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 year ago

It works in the current Firefox for Android beta version.
