It's a compliance thing. It's worse if you're in the EU, but the internet is global so it affects everybody, these days.
The old uBlockOrigin (which Google depreciated) had an auto-decline, so I didn't see one of those cookie banners for years... the new Lite version, however, doesn't seem to have that feature.
