    Double pop! First time I’ve seen a privacy popup on top of a privacy popup. The top one you can only accept.

      Ah I see they are going the Roku route.

      I specifically re-open those pages in a browser on my computer, hit F12 (developer tools) or right-click -> inspect element, then delete the elements containing the popup and any modal overlays associated with it. Often you also have to re-enable scrolling, which is usually lazily implemented in the <body> element styles or classes, so just delete all the styles in the body tag, and maybe the classes if that doesn’t work, and you’re good to go. Then you’re able to continue without agreeing to whatever horse shit policy or disclaimer they are trying to force you to accept.

        you can also block or remove the elements with UBlock Origin. either on desktop or mobile, just enter element picker mode, select the popup and tap create.

        does it do that by simply accepting them, or bypassing them, and would it make sure the sites don’t track me if I used it?

        • It doesn’t accept or deny the popup, it just hides it. Technically if you don’t answer the cookie banner it needs to be treated as if you denied it. But you can just block all third-party cookies in Firefox and you’ll be fine.

      It pretty clearly says “accept it or gtfo”

      Are you expecting a No button that redirects your to Google or something?

        Well… it doesn’t. Why would i have to accept twice if i did?

          First is “this isn’t a negotiation. Accept or leave” Second is “pick the cookies you want”

            I dont see it this way. They contradict themselves. If i accept the first one but reject the one bellow, that should override the first. Its not logical to force me to accept in order to get to the next one where i can reject
