      So you’re saying that with uBlock Origin on, I can just select accept all and I still won’t get any of their bullshit‽

      I wish I’d known ages ago!

          Thanks, I’ll try it out. Looks promising so far!

        It’s better, it doesn’t accept any, it just deletes the elements that make up the UI. It’s not the government’s fault that Ars intentionally made their website unusable. They could just follow the intent of the law and not use cookies at all.

          I didn’t mean to imply that. The GDPR is a great law and they’re actually breaking not just the intent but the actual text of it.

          I don’t remember the exact paragraph, but it says that sites are supposed to make rejecting cookies no more ardous than accepting them.

          That most other sites are in violation of that part too is no excuse, especially not for being one of the worst offenders!

          How do you make it do that? My screenshot was taken in Nightly with uBlock Origin on and Ars not whitelisted…

            By default it’s not enabled in uBlock Origin. Go to the filter list settings and enable the appropriate Annoyances filters for Cookie Notices (or just enable all the Annoyances filters)
