> And on the question of GDPR modals, I'm afraid I have to say that they are an absolute legal necessity.
I block cookies from all sites by default, and make exceptions for the few that I need to log into. The result is the GDPR modals keep popping up because the modals can't set cookies to remember whether or not I accepted.
So the only thing I can do is inject JS/CSS to block them.
(Also by de-modalizing it and hiding it, I never actually need to accept anything, and nobody gets my permission to track, hee hee.)
