by Chronogroumph, 8 years agoLa RGPD rend le contrôle des données privées aux utilisateurs d'Internet. Utiliser ce module revient donc à accepter "bêtement" tous les cookies, même les plus intrusifs et rendre disponible toute sa vie privée, tout en perdant conscience des risques éventuels.
A se demander si de tels logiciels ne sont pas conçus et proposés par les plus grands bénéficiaires du vol des données privées...

posted 8 years agoI respect your opinion. However, as someone who protects the privacy in many more practical and sufficient ways, I don't want to click the same cookie warning button on 150 websites daily, nor read privacy policies all day long.
Don't get me wrong: I am all for the privacy protection. I just think displaying a cookie warning everywhere is not a good and practical solution. You don't want to be notified about dangers when crossing the street and asked to agree or sign the document which states all the dangers of it, right? It would be too much, because you already know it, and you don't want to waste time you don't have, right?
The same goes for internet privacy: education is the key - the right kind of education which takes place in the right kind of institutions and not on the websites themselves (for some websites, it's almost like forcing a thief to explain what he's going to steal from you on purpose).
Btw, this extension is created long before the GDPR :)

- Rated 1 out of 5by St, a month agoKeeps getting worse since croatian developer Daniel Kladnik sold the popular "I don't care about cookies" browser extension to Avast (now part of Gen Digital, former Symantec). Many users became wary of their data being handled by a large antivirus/security company, leading to distrust. This prompted the development of alternative, community-driven versions (forks) like "I Still Don't Care About Cookies," available on GitHub and browser stores, to ensure transparency and user control. Users concerned about the acquisition often turn to the open-source forks for a more community-backed solution.

- Rated 3 out of 5by Olivier E., 3 months agoUsed to be a very useful extension coupled with another extension that delete the cookies as soon as I leave a website. However in the past few month I noticed a lot of broken website on Firefox until I realized the issue was this extension...I had to remove it...I'm annoyed to see the banners back but at least I can browse properly.

- Rated 1 out of 5by ab-tools, 4 months agoThis often doesn't work and reporting cookies banners leads to page with database error. Use add-on "I still don't care about cookies" by Guus instead!

- Rated 5 out of 5by Lilith D. Bracken, 4 months agoThis extension makes browsing so much smoother by automatically getting rid of those annoying cookie pop-ups. Almost every site is covered, so you can focus on the content instead of constantly clicking “accept” or “reject.” It works quietly in the background, doesn’t slow anything down, and makes visiting websites much less frustrating. Perfect for anyone who just wants a cleaner, faster browsing experience.

- Rated 2 out of 5by BrianG, 6 months agoUsed to work fairly well but now I mainly notice it because it breaks various websites such as Tesco Bank, making the site completely unusable.
I won't be using it anymore. - Rated 3 out of 5by Quyu, 7 months agoраньше работало отлично, но сейчас половина сайтов не работает с этим расширением

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 19118954, 7 months agono longer works, no longer needed. Enable EasyList, AdGuard in Cookie notices in UblockOrigin dashboard settings and it does the job.
