"How to bypass and block infuriating cookie popups" 🙄🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️

Oh the hilarious irony. Can anyone recommend an up to date Firefox addon that gets rid of these fucking popups, automatically declining all but necessary? I've looked at a few but I remember folks here recommending some that I can't now for the life if me remember what they were. Thanks!

I use I still don’t care about cookies, which blocks the banners; and NoScript, which blocks JavaScript and other crap that would bring up the popup in the first place.

I may stop using IDCAC, however, as some other comments have shown me that I can just use an annoyances blocklist in uBO instead. The fewer extensions I have, the less fingerprintable I am, or so I’m told.

Doesn’t blocking JavaScript brakes most websites nowadays?

@peregus @hellfire103 Yes and no. Yes: Some poorly programmed websites require JS. No: Nonetheless you can employ NoScript to fine-grained block JS from evil domains. No harm is done when you allow the main domain (if necessary) but block crap such as doubleclick or google-analytics as "not trustworthy" (NoScript language).
