Did anyone notice the amazing cookie banner? 1. It offers a 'accept essential cookies' button 2. It doesn't take up as much space as many other cookie banners

  Re #2: Are you on a desktop/laptop? It took up a third of my screen on my phone. That’s not much better than others.

  I like the accept essential cookie button, but it doesn't much smaller than most banners I come across.

  I thought "essential" cookies didn't even need consent? Either way, cookie consent nonsense and the banners caused by it are a blight whose benefits ("solving" the absolute non-problem of advertisement tracking) pale in comparison to the enormous collective inconvenience and wasted developer hours they've caused us all. It's sad that we look at a banner that's not as bad as it can be and appreciate it, like someone saying their spouse only hit them three times today instead of ten.

    Yeah, it's unfortunate that the bar is so low

  After checking uBlock's debug log, yes, I did notice it! It is ##.cc-cookies from the rulesets "Fanboy's Annoyance" and "AdGuard Annoyances". (To anyone unfamiliar: these "extra" rulesets ship with uBlock Origin, are disabled by default, and can be toggled in the "Filter lists" tab of Settings). https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/wiki/Dashboard:-Filter-lists https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/wiki/Dashboard:-Filter-lis...
