- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 15880550, 4 years agoGreat Addon !
unfortunatly the Google “did you mean” suggestion is killed since the last update !!! - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13805277, 4 years agoThe name says it all. It's the perfect tool for people that don't care about cookies. It just accept every cookie.
For anyone else: Beware of this extension.Developer response
posted 4 years agoNot true, it doesn't accept cookies. It mostly blocks or hides cookie related pop-ups. Only when it's needed for the website to work properly, it accepts the cookie policy. - Rated 5 out of 5by Joe, 4 years ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by Q777111777, 4 years agoAlways incognito & delete all user, sick and tired of pointless cookie messages.
Addon so far it's working great and I hope you will keep it running, updating, this is a life saver. You should get a medal for this!
Cookie messages > I think this is the most stupidest thing ever created by those EU regulation guys, unbelievable. Every day, every site.. cookie this, cookie that, like I care about your cookies, seriously. As if somebody is going to read through those "terms", nobody does that... only annoying people. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13112466, 4 years agoGocomics did something some days ago that caused this extension to hide all the comics. Took me awhile to find the trouble; adding gocomics.com to the exception list fixed the non-display issue, but now I have to click their cookie notice all the time. Otherwise, this thing rocks.

posted 4 years agoThanks! I think gocomics will work fine again in the next version. - Rated 5 out of 5by advice, 4 years agoExcellent and very useful. I wish it become available on Firefox mobile as soon as possible.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Edward Grant II, 4 years agoI've tried many ways of bypassing cooky notices and this one is the best so far and it works !

- Rated 3 out of 5by Schmurtz, 4 years agoThe EU regulation which many people criticize in these comments are a true progress in your own liberty and rights. I agree to said that the implementation is really bad on most of websites and there is something to do. But take the time to read carefully what is RGPD and what is changing with this regulation and you will see that it has been made for you, to protect you.
For the author, you really should precise what does it mean "I don't care about cookies" , does it mean that it click by default on "accept all" or "reject all". I think that it matter for all the users of this extension that probably (for some of them) take care to their privacy...Developer response
posted 4 years agoThanks for the review, Schmurtz!
Generally, I agree with you, users should know what the GDPR is all about. From i-dont-care-about-cookies.eu: "Please educate yourself about cookie related privacy issues and ways to protect yourself and your data..."
While privacy is important and the law is probably here because of us, somehow the implementation of that law is going terribly wrong. Nobody will ever find the time to read all the policies on a daily basis before accepting the policy of every visited website, especially users of this extension who mostly delete all privacy data automatically when closing the browser and are faced with the same policy acceptance pop-ups every day. It's just too much. So instead of user blindly accepting and moving on, here is the extension that does so.
I will add an explanation so the users know how the extension gets rid of warnings (in most cases it just hides and blocks them; it automatically accepts cookie palicies only when it's needed for the website to function properly). Thanks for the suggestion :) - Rated 5 out of 5by Glenn Fiddich, 4 years ago

posted 4 years agoYou should rate Firefox for Android then, not my extension :) Firefox team decides for some reason which extensions can be available there. Please join the conversation, maybe they'll add it if users demand it: https://discourse.mozilla.org/t/when-will-my-extensions-become-available-on-firefox-for-android/66013- Rated 5 out of 5by daladim, 4 years agoI realise that I *love* this addon every time I use someone else's browser, and notice that the Web has become an ugly place because of these stupid cookies regulations.
Kiko, you are definitely contributing to making the Web a better place :-)
(can I vote somewhere so that the Firefox team makes this addon available on Android more quickly?)Developer response
posted 4 years agoThank you :)
I don't think you can vote anywhere, but there's my topic on mozilla forum: https://discourse.mozilla.org/t/when-will-my-extensions-become-available-on-firefox-for-android/66013
Please let them know how important that is to you, maybe they will consider it. - Rated 5 out of 5by Álvaro González, 4 years agoIf I could only use one extension on Android it'd definitively be this. This add-on alone makes browsing in small screens one order of magnitude less painful, something you fully realise when Mozilla suddenly decides to disallow 99% of third-party extensions 😿
Developer response
posted 4 years agoPlease join the discussion and let the mozilla community know how important this extension is to you. The more of you do that, I guess the greater the chances they'll whitelist it: https://discourse.mozilla.org/t/when-will-my-extensions-become-available-on-firefox-for-android/66013 - Rated 5 out of 5by JG, 4 years agoIt does its job perfectly. THANK YOU SO MUCH for creating this extension it changes our life !
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 12851851, 4 years agoI can't leave without this, especially combined with CookieAutodelete.
Can this please be updated to the new Firefox for Android?Developer response
posted 4 years agoThe extension would work just fine, it's up to Firefox team to allow it. I don't think I can do anything, and I don't know why they are deliberately blocking most extensions in latest versions. - Rated 5 out of 5by Yves Goergen, 4 years agoBasically, nice. It really does hide a ton of that EU regulation crap that floods the web now like advertisements. But I can't continue to use this anymore. Too many websites are broken in a way that's hard to diagnose. Missing page elements, broken features, entirely unusable pages (because of modal background remains), other annoyances. It's better to confirm the cookies once and have a properly working website than having a broken website more easily. :-( This is when EU sucks. The only thing this add-on could do better is adding more hacks for more websites. Just hiding confirmation dialogs doesn't help, they have to be confirmed properly. The pages' scripts rely on that. It's hard, I know, and it's probably not the way to go forward. We had a good time together, but this is starting to get out of control, so for me it's better to quit. And it's sad to say goodbye.
Update: The real world is unbearable, I had not anticipated this! So I looked around and learned how to use this add-on properly. I now make use of per-site configuration and only turn it off where it fails, but leave it on by default. Much better! Keep up the good work! Thanks!Developer response
posted 4 years agoThanks for the nice review, I totally understand your point. This certainly isn't a one man project, and I'd have to give up my job [and family and everything else] :D to cover all reported websites properly. Thanks for using it! - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 16103642, 4 years ago

posted 4 years agoIt will work. There are millions of websites, you can't make a bad review because of just one of them :)
