I just immediately hit those 'cookie consent buttons/boxes' with a uBlock Origin 'block element'. Gets rid of them permanently, and doesn't require submitting/clicking anything.

Knowing that most of the sites use that box to let you acknowledge they are tracking.

I wonder how that applies legally if they happen to collect data on you and you haven’t given consent.
