Yeah I have legitimate interest. Legitimate interest in those who decided to implement this (sh.itjust.works)

Why does it not have “Decline all” button??

So that most people just click on "accept all"

[–] original_reader@lemm.ee 24 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I close the website. Didn't miss an essential website (or app, for that matter) so far.

I just accept knowing that uBlock will block it anyway

Consent o matic is your friend

[–] anzo@programming.dev 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Yup. Best firefox extension after uBO. If I had to pick a third one it would be Privacy Badger, although it breaks some sites.

[–] InFerNo@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago

What does privacy badger do specifically?

I would put DeArrow on the 3rd spot. It makes YouTube so much more bearable.

I also use decentraleyes.

Not necessarily all of it.

Even anti fingerprinting browser forks aren’t perfect.

Yeah but the consent boxes are just for cookies anyway

Yep. Most websites make it intentionally difficult to reject this stuff by giving you a single "ACCEPT ALL" button and then burying each individual actual setting behind multiple menus and dropdowns, some of which are deliberately obfuscated, sometimes with odd color choices for the toggle that make it difficult to determine whether the option is actually on or off.

Some websites offer a "Reject All" option, but they are few and far between.

They're not that few and far between, as declining must be as easy as declining per the GDPR. Just report the transgressors to the national watchdog.

I wish it were that easy in the US.

[–] ReakDuck@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago

As an US citizen you just literally are owned and experiemented by all its corporations

[–] Object@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 years ago

Shame that they don't enforce adding that button.
