The one that didn't popup?

I use https://ninja-cookie.com/ and it even works on some sites. I hope mobile firefox will soon whitelist it or at least some addons. So far ABO can do a basic job with hiding the banners but this breaks some sites. Ninja simply clicks the not-Agree-buttons-and-switches based on a json ruleset. There was defunct browser that used that feature first and some french guys recycled it into a addon (works almost on any browser)

At least they're honest and straightforward :)

https://easylist.to/ here is adblocking rules to get rid of many cookie pupups. If we never give our explicit consent they're not allowed to track right?

I remember seeing a Show HN a while ago with the perfect cookie pop-up. It was small, discrete, and didn't take the whole page width. It was even praised in the comments.

Unfortunately I can't remember the website. I hope someone posts it here.

Maybe Klaro? https://github.com/kiprotect/klaro

It's FOSS, BSD-3 licensed. It has been in development for three years now, just today I made a new release to improve contextual consent functionality (e.g. for Youtube videos).

Thank you, this is cool, but it's not what I had in mind.

The best one is on HN.
