A nearly ideal way to do this on Firefox is to combine https://github.com/OhMyGuus/I-Dont-Care-About-Cookies https://github.com/OhMyGuus/I-Dont-Care-About-Cookies (which is a maintained fork of the original I don't care about cookies extension, recently bought by Avast) with https://github.com/Cookie-AutoDelete/Cookie-AutoDelete https://github.com/Cookie-AutoDelete/Cookie-AutoDelete This setup will automatically accept or reject, whichever works, the cookie nonsense and get rid of them once you're done with your tab. CAD comes with a friendly interface to white/greylist cookies you want to keep. One of the default blocklist for uBlock Origin aims to remove cookie banners too, but a lot of them cannot be simply nuked that way, hence the above method.

There's also Consent-O-Matic: https://github.com/cavi-au/Consent-O-Matic https://github.com/cavi-au/Consent-O-Matic It allows to decline all the cookie banners. However, it doesn't work with many websites. In fact, it works with relatively few. Still, I like the approach to actively reject all cookies.

  The best part of "I don't care about cookies" and "Cookie AutoDelete" combo is that you don't even have to think about it, because even if it accepts everything, it will be cleaned. 0 mental load required.

    Except, some tracking/fingerprint related stuff is stored server side... and thus not "cleaned".

      Well, that's up to your browser to prevent. It's a cat and mouse game; and I doubt something you can solve be clicking a consent button.

If you're using uBlock Origin just install the annoyances list, that gets rid of cookie banners AFAIK. Edit: Damn, I should have read your comment until the end, sorry.

  Some of us don’t care about this. It’s always worked like that and it doesn’t bother us. We just want to access the information that we are interested in.

  This comes down to what you care about. Third party tracking is largely stopped by uBlock Origin, which is my primary concern. If the server I'm currently on does anything to analyze my browsing, that's fine with me. Not because I don't care, but because there's nothing I can do either way. It could lie about it and I would be none the wiser.

  tracking data server-side relies on a persistent cookie on the client. if you delete the cookie, the link is severed.
