List of Websites not available in the EU because of GDPR

One major annoyance is that one of my Firefox extension, either the ad blocker or the "I don't care about cookies" finds and remove the GDPR javascript pop up from CookieBot (which is GDPR compliance as a service for people who don't know what they're doing").

Because I can't see the CookieBot pop up anymore I can't dismiss, but it prevents scrolling from working on a large number of websites.... All news websites interestingly enough.

I'm not familiar with CookieBot, but from the sound of your post alone, it sounds like what's blocking you is a DIV element that is expecting a JS script to remove it once the person clicks the button? If so, the DIV element should be the same for all sites that use CookieBot (I'd assume. JS libraries usually dictate what your DIV should be called), so you should just be able to block that DIV ID in your content-filter-of-choice?
