For those that don’t know, Firefox has in-built support for automatically rejecting cookies and blocking the cookie banners from popping up.
To enable this feature, go to about:config, and perform the following:
- change cookiebanners.service.mode from 0 to 2
To have this functionality in Private browsing mode, you should also:
- change cookiebanners.service.mode.privateBrowsing from 0 to 2.
All Power to the People!
edit: (credit for this information goes to this lemming). Apparently, mode 2 means reject all or fall back to accept all if there is no Reject All button. Mode 1 only hits a Reject All button if available but ignores others.
The duckduckgo mobile and now desktop browsers have great cookie blocking and auto-no-thanks features.
When you log in to a website, it asks you want to fireproof the site so that you keep their cookies.
I like the fire button that burninates all the cookies and other browser cruft. I don’t even care if they send me cookes now, I’ll be burning them all before I quit the browser.
