- Rated 2 out of 5by user, 3 years agoGood idea but not many rules... Even the most recognized sites aren't supported like microsoft.com.
GDPR Consent Rules Editor is confusing.
Exported JSON should have magic number and version!
I use uBlock Origin with EasyList Cookie list in order to hide warnings. EasyList Cookie list has 45,879 records... - Rated 5 out of 5by user24, 3 years agoLooks good but where can i see the extensions privacy policy please?
- Rated 4 out of 5by Tobias, 3 years agoWorks great most of the time (as long as the website is supported) but I recently ran into an issue with the consent form on youtube.
When opening video from youtube a private window by right clicking the video the addon autofills the consent form and then closes the window - Rated 5 out of 5by Robert Foss, 3 years ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by mcn, 3 years agoThanks for the very useful add-on! It doesn't block all sites but it is still better than clicking everything. Does this add-on also handle the opting out of the new "Legitimate Interest"?
- Rated 5 out of 5by Djokkum, 3 years agoDoesn't work on all websites (yet), but otherwise works very well and makes browsing the Web much more pleasant.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 17242389, 3 years ago8 months after the first, three star rating:
the add-on has been improved, is now much more stable and works well. Protects the privacy and saves loads of time. There are still sites where the settings need to be updated manually, but not too many and I'm not letting perfect be the enemy of good.
The "old" review: Good idea, but unstable implementation. Some pages hang (e.g. connect.garmin.com, with trust arc), with no way of cancelling the process, the only way is to disable the CoM. There seems to be an option to not run the CoM on a page (a check box "keep running on this site?") but it does not affect the process in any way.
Please fix it and/or provide some way of giving you feedback and learning about fixes. - Rated 5 out of 5by SirRoberBurns, 3 years agoAbsolutely fantastic! Thank you for developing this extension!

- Rated 1 out of 5by japd, 3 years agoNe fonctionne pas sur la plupart des sites que je visite, clubic ou frandroid notamment.
- Rated 5 out of 5by darephil, 3 years agoA must for every avid Internet user. Works like a charm on most sites, and improves the experience on the internet extremely, especially when looking for news articles on sites I don't regularly visit. It would be interesting, if there are further lists that could be included, or whether new lists are included in the Standard .json.

- Rated 5 out of 5by ifrit, 4 years agoO add-on que precisaba!! Marca todas as opcións dos avisos de cookies da GDPR seguindo unhas sinxelas liñas configurábeis. Tamén podes marcar que non funcione en certas páxinas. Aforrando tempo sen parar!! Grazas!! :)

- Rated 4 out of 5by atleta, 4 years agoDisabling doesn't work so I can't test the websites I'm working on in Firefox. Also, the log just stays empty even after months of use and it behaves weirdly on stackoverflow. (It pops up and flashes every single time I visit the site as if it was handling a consent popup, but there is no consent popup to handle on every single visit. And I have already consented to them before even installing consentomatic.) Otherwise nice work.
Developer response
posted 4 years agoIm not sure why disabling the addon does not work, when on a site you want to disable the addon for, click the addon icon and uncheck "Keep running on this site?"
I think i fixed the stackoverflow problem, and log being empty in the latest version 0.9.4 - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 16843634, 4 years ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by UnnamedUser, 4 years agoExcellent module from a liable source, unfortunately, I had to uninstall it since it was blocking the access to my online bank. Otherwise, it works perfectly on a lot of websites.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Pantoffelheld und Prahlhans bauchpinseln Mumpitz., 4 years agovery funny and scarry to see in the PiP opting out frame, scrolling through 100's of data thieves.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Matti, 4 years agoTested against over 30 websites, didn't do anything.. I had to answer all consent popups manually.. Most of them were Finnish news sites. If developer wants to test, https://www.ampparit.com is good place to start, it collect news links from tens of different Finnish news sites. Consent-O-Matic fails on all of them.
