uBO alreay has a list to remove cookie banners, it's listed under "annoyances": (EasyList Cookie)

it's not enabled by default

I had no idea about the blocklist approach, thanks for bringing this up!

I'm the author.

I maintain both the "I don't care about cookies" and the premium "No, thanks" extension and the filter list. All by myself, for the last 8-9 years. Please don't write stuff you didn't recheck first.

While the list is a cool addition for those who can't install the extension, it really can't do much when cookie policy needs to be accepted for the website to work properly. The extension accepts policies automatically when it's needed.

Cheers, Daniel

I love your extension Daniel. Installing Firefox Mobile, then this was a revelation. Unfortunately, it was killed by the Firefox update two weeks later.

They'll fix that. I think they realized they will lose so many users without extension support.

I confused names of uBlock lists and functionality with your extension. I sincerely apologize.

Apology accepted :)

It has some extra features. i don't think it is a repackage.

You can do those with uBlock Origin, but users don't want to mess with extensions and want extensions to work out of the box, so they install many extensions leading to malware and privacy issues.

That's a pretty hefty statement that really needs more than just you thinking so, in my opinion.

That's why I said ''It looks like'' not ''It is''. When you have Ublock this really looks unnecessary.

Ublock is the one that was swiped from the original creator's hands under the guise of maintenance support while the original creator's time was scarce.

Ublock origin is the one to use, and is maintained by the original creator.

I'd link to sources, but it's too easy for me to cherry pick... I'd recommend looking around to see if what you find corroborates with what I've stated.

Maybe, but you'd certainly have to put in a lot of time into getting it right.
