In europe we have a "reject all" button for cookies and it's fantastic
Since I started using a VPN, I've started seeing that option more. Even still, lots of sites aren't compliant.
Yep, you can "reject all" if you're lucky. Then you just have to go through the list anyway and untick all "legitimate interest" to spy on you.
Except on news websites that only give you the choice between "subscribe for X€" and "read for free (accept all)". So annoying. Still no idea why that's legal.
It is not
That's not at all legal under GDPR. Nor is having deny all be harder than accept. As is tradition however companies don't give half a shit until fines start happening.
Because newspapers are not forced to give out their news for free. But they have to give you an alternative to selling your data; taking money from you in this case.
Which is illegal under GDPR btw. See instagram being sued for „pay or get tracked“ on their app.
See I want to be able to set that once, in my browser, and then have all of these things fuck off.
We also have this glorious extension which just fucks them all off:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-GB/firefox/addon/istilldontcareaboutcookies/
Or you can enable "Annoyances" filters in uBlock Origin for the same effect
I used to use Ghostery but removed it and now just use these two filters in uBlock. They're not perfect but certainly better than not using them at all.
Also interesting; I didn't realise I hadn't turned those on. thanks!
There seems to be a lot of options. Which ones do I pick? :/
Just turn it all on until something breaks!
I can't tell: are you joking or serious?
Serious ;)
I see. I'll try it then. Thanks. :)
Use I STILL don't care about cookies. That one is owned by Avast nowadays and accepts all cookies which is clearly not what people want.
I personally use the community version as well because I don't trust avast but is there any evidence they are actually doing this?
thanks, changed it.
IIRC that add-on was bought by Avast and the new add-on is 'I still don't care about cookies'
thanks, changed it.
Holy fuck, that is so disgusting. I was gonna ask why that's even legal but I've learned not to ask such stupid, logical questions. Thanks for the tip!
To my understanding, by using this you accept (all) the cookies... I would like a extension that tries to minimize cookie exposure!
Here you go
https://addons.mozilla.org/sv-SE/firefox/addon/consent-o-matic/
Thanks!! Going to try it!
https://www.ghostery.com/
Ghostery will automatically decline all tracking pop ups, block cookies, website trackers, etc.
I’ve been using it for a while and love it.
Thanks!! Going to try it!
You're sort of right. Cookie deletion should be available in browser settings right?
In some browsers, such as duck duck go, that's indeed available and customizable per site. There is also Auto Cookie Delete extension on Firefox and Chrome that you can use.
Be fair, it's not always working but more often then not IMO.
I'd love somewhere to reporh those assholish designed (so illegal in the EU) ones, like the French CNIL or something?
The consent-o-matic add on allows you to autofil the cookie response and when it doesn't work you can report it. The ad on is also funded by the EU somehow, can't remember exactly how. If the add on doesn't work it means their site is not asking the question correctly.
Thanks I'd look it up, guess CNIL might be a start.
No, we don't. I had to do this manually, more than once.
