This addon seem to work pretty well, its one of the few not being scam and with real hard working devs behind it. The cookie protection differs from other addons which proofs you indeed use your own algorithm and don't just copy script from others. With outstanding results! Unfortunately, this addon is not only not longer free but the authors were really non-transparent about it:
In August 2025 "Super Agent" turned into a subscription model, which may be okay (you two guys keep working hard for providing support and updates).
BUT: You really should be honest with users - you know FF auto-updates Addons by default. You should make a disclaimer and exposing the last free version for all those users who just want to continue the free (unmaintained) addon. Even better: Providing a link to it with instruction how to stop auto-update in FF. Also, your addon history completely lacks of changelogs - uncool :(
Since you did not do this, this is the reason for [-2 stars].
One additional [-1 star] for not adding the purple commercial $ category in FF store to your addon. You better do that if you not want somebody to report it.
End of review (only some additional info):
I am not much of a programmer, but very experienced in testing ad blocker addons for FF for about 10 years now. For years now "Adguard", "Super Agent" (has AI) and "I [still] don't care about cookies" (static list - always up to date) are outstanding winners for cookie consent. But I think the most honorable engine is included in "Cookie-Banner-Blocker" (otsmr) as it contains multi-level detection but continuing development is abandond by now.
You should add the latter engine to yours and make some exceptions for pages like apps.datev.de (auto-logout even if added to your whitelist) and reCaptchas in general as Cookie-Banner-Blocker has a false positive there (it wrongly block all Captchas).

Developer response
posted 7 months agoHi,
Thanks for the review! You can downgrade the version at https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/super-agent/versions/
I don't think your suggestion is very reasonable because most of the work we do is on the Back end, so the unmaintained version would (and will) work for a long long time without any real issues, as it will now if you choose to downgrade.
I think it is nice on our end to let the users downgrade, but actively informing and teaching users how not to pay would be counter productive. There is a need for revenue to be able to keep adding more websites. If you don't want to pay that's fine, but you need to be the one learning how to downgrading and doing some work for it.
Again, regarding changelogs, 99% of our updates are related to adding more websites and providers. We are a one feature extension, there aren't really any new features being added. We just focus on supporting more sites, more speed, and adding new cookie providers. Our changelogs are either bugfixes, or changing our code so we become faster, or adding a new way of clicking buttons to work on a new provider.
Also, the addon works for 40 sites a week, hence us not requiring a purple commercial $ category. The addon works for free, it works better and on more sites if you pay for it.
Lastly: Cookie banner blocker doesn't work the same way. We actively enforce consent (either reject or accept based on categories) by clicking the checkboxes and buttons. Most other products simply block the banner or hide it, often causing problems or crashing websites.
Thanks again for the review, just a pity we couldn't get one from you when we were outstanding and free!
