I didn’t manage to get past the Dutch cookie consent. How do I say no cookies or legitimate interest in Dutch?
- notanote 6y agoA surprisingly high number of links posted to HN can be read while having js and cookies disabled. It’s not for everyone, but it does work to bypass the consent popup in this case as well.
- throwawayfire 6y agoThis is a tricky one. There is one route to revoke consent and another route to object to legitimate interest, and it doesn't seem that you can precisely follow both routes. I assume the second option does both, but it's not clear. I've seen this same pattern in English also, so I'll include my translation: Meer Opties (More Options) -> Gerechtvaardigd Belang (Legitimate Interest, small link on bottom left) -> Bezwaar Tegen Alles (Object to All) -> Opslaan en Afsluiten (Save and Close)
- oh_sigh 6y agoYou should try setting your user agent to default block javascript + cookies. It's actually not that bad. I'm not a zealot, I just whitelist sites as I come across them that don't work without those things. In the end, most websites I visit work better without javascript/cookies rather than degrading in performance. For example basically every newspaper that prevents you from reading too many articles lets you read as many as you want without javascript running.
