So browsers have started to roll out GPC, or basically browser-based consent. This was explicitly designed to deal with intrusive cookie banners. I’ve now noticed several websites with the same intrusive banners recognizing that you opted out but begging you to opt back in anyway. These banners are so big as to obscure the majority of the content on the site.


This, also site permissions (at least in Vivaldi), extensions like I don’t need Cookies or its filterlists in the adblocker. (eg. https://secure.fanboy.co.nz/fanboy-cookiemonster.txt), all other filtering with Portmaster, the middle finger for Big Brother corps.
