Description
This extension automatically handles cookie consent pop-ups on websites, saving you from the annoyance of manually dismissing them. It is a community-maintained fork of the original 'I don't care about cookies' extension, developed after the original was acquired by Avast. The source code is publicly available on GitHub for transparency and community contributions.
Key Features
- Blocks or hides cookie-related pop-ups on the vast majority of websites, preventing them from interrupting your browsing experience.
- When a website requires cookie consent for functionality, the extension automatically accepts the cookie policy on your behalf. Depending on the site's implementation, it may accept all cookies or only the necessary categories, whichever is simpler to execute.
- Does not delete any cookies already stored in your browser; it only interacts with cookie consent interfaces to dismiss or accept them.
- Useful for users who browse anonymously or have automatic cookie deletion enabled, as these users would otherwise see consent pop-ups on every visit.
- Open-source and community-driven, allowing anyone to inspect, improve, or extend the code via the GitHub repository.
Whether you're a privacy-conscious user who clears cookies regularly or simply tired of clicking 'Accept' on every site, this extension streamlines your browsing by quietly handling cookie consent in the background.
