This should make it a lot easier :) It auto-handles most gdpr permission walls, and yes, you can set it to reject all - that's what I do!

(I'm sure this exists for Chrome, too, but if you care about this sort of thing you really should be using Firefox!)

Thank you for this; I've been manually unticking everything since these regulations came into effect and have to admit it was getting a bit tiring (plus sometimes I was too hasty and accidentally clicked "Accept" when the cookie buttons were in a weird order or had non-standard wording.) I hope this helps me decline all the things more efficiently.

Just remove the dialogs with ublock filters; this is supposed to mean no consent. Most spy networks don't care and track before you click anyway.

Well, that made me unreasonably happy, thank you Edit: and then realise it's not applicable to android Firefox where I do most of my browsing, but thank you anyway.

I much prefer https://github.com/OhMyGuus/I-Still-Dont-Care-About-Cookies (far more reliable in my experience)
