I see haters in the surrounding replies and agree on tribal aspect, so to defuse that, I'll say Firefox is doing something interesting and different from what we're shipping. It is worth having browsers try different approaches, no matter who is "first" (Brave likely will be, for stable release channel distribution). It seems Firefox’s cookie consent blocker automates clicking Reject after letting consent-management-provider(CMP)-scripts load. https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/toolkit/components/cookiebanners https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/toolkit/compone... (shared above already) It looks like the code also injects opt-out cookies too, may sometimes do both click and cookie injection. Session cookie, so has to inject recurrently. The Brave approach blocks the CMP scripts that pose these bono-consent dialogs in the first place. One reason we favor this approach beyond simplicity: many consent frameworks, besides being found illegal already in EU courts (going to top court soon), do dark deeds: extort from publishers, lie to and track users no matter what the user clicks.
