Are there any addons as essential as uBlockOrigin?
Are there any addons as essential as uBlockOrigin?
I would love to find extensions that make me think "How did I live without this?"

Consent-o-matic. Auto decline gpdr popups.
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/consent-o-matic/Isn’t there a filter set for this in uBlock already? Annoyances filter?
I believe it unlock just hides them and not very well.
This will actively opt out of everything for you.
i tought they needed to be opted in for the tracking to be allowed to work?
Doesn't the third party cookie blocking already do this?
They block collection but popups are still here and you have to press them on every page you go to
Ublock with the annoyances filters enabled hides most of them perfectly, and if the website uses some obscure toolkit/creates its own banner you can always remove it using the content selector
Hence, there is no need for the the extension mentioned in the parent comment
Nice, I will definitely try this. Thanks.
And fun fact, it's developed by Danish researchers:
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.
This is awesome, thanks. Now that I have it installed I'd like to try it. Know any websites to test it out?
Enable the plugin while using private mode and see how it handles Google, YouTube and a random news site.
I've had much better luck with I still don't care about cookies. Maybe I was doing something wrong but C-O-M didn't seem to do much for me.
