I did not know that I already had the tool in my hands.
uBlock Origin is the best ad blocker imaginable.
But it can do something I always wanted: Get rid of cookie popups (but without acception them automatically).
Visiting a new website and being able to read the content directly feels so weird, although it should be normal.
I hope, EU legislation will force websites to accept a global “Auto-decline”/“Minimum-possible” configurable in the web browser, in which case no banner can be shown. IMO, that’s how it should have always been.

The banner is a stupid solution. Tracking and ad profiles should be completely banned instead.
Yeah. The idea that tracking should require explicit consent sounds pretty good at first, but we now the result is that users are constantly nagged and harassed and annoyed until they finally “consent” - at which point everything becomes silky smooth.
So yeah, I agree that this kind of thing should be simply banned, to remove any inconvenience or confusion from the whole thing.
There is also “consent o matic”, banner does appear but go away in less than a second and auto decline as possible. Does not work on 100% of website but still does a good job.

I don’t like consent’o’matic it plays a slow anination and takes nearly a full second
Just disable the animation?
Thanks
you can use it to bypass facebooks login popup(without logging in)
The AdBlock blocklist does accept cookie banners without concenting to tracking, when possible.
Check out the rules. It doesn’t just zap the overlay, it executes some custom js for every site.
adblock? is that the one that accepts money for whitelisting adds? :D
AdBlock is also a rules format, obviously you run it with ublockorigin or Adguard etc.
oh. TIL.
