- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 15109409, 6 years agoThis addon automatically accepts cookies:
"Starting with version 3.0.2, this extension notifies websites about which cookies the visitor allows them to install. By knowing this, websites can skip displaying the cookie warning and act according to the given permission. As a result, you will be bothered by cookie warnings even less. "
Privacy oriented users, please bear in mind the following:
The Verge shows a tracking-consent message when visiting the site from the EU. Most people will click "I Accept" to make it go away, but if you don't and hide the message via CSS, you won't be tracked and the site is way faster: 32 vs 5 secs load time 61 vs 2 JS files 2 vs 1 MB

Ublock Origin cookies block removes the CSS and does not accept the cookies, you can also use the element picker.

posted 6 years agoOk, one by one...
1. This addon automatically accepts cookies WHEN it is necessary for the website to function properly. Mostly it just hides cookie warnings.
2. Quoted message has nothing to do with automatically accepting cookies. It is about notifying websites what you allow them to do so they may skip displaying a cookie warning alltogether if they want to improve user experience.
3. Cookie warning on theverge.com is not auto-accepted, it's just hidden with this extension, so I don't know why you are writing about it.
Regards,
Daniel
SMALL UPDATE: there may be some important features that don't work properly on theverge.com without auto-accepting cookie policy, just like on some of their partners websites. In that case I'd need to auto-accept it. For now, the cookie warning will just remain hidden. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14751441, 6 years ago

posted 6 years agoYeah, I see it's reported to me, they have changed something on the website... It will be fixed in the next version. You may also let them to check which cookies you allow them to install and stop bothering you: https://www.i-dont-care-about-cookies.eu/cookie-installing-permission-header/ - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 15105830, 6 years ago
