Comment on YSK: You can block almost all cookie popups with Ublock Origin.
capybara@lemm.ee 3 weeks agoIf you don’t click any of the options and simply block the pop-up, it commonly breaks the site. Doesn’t matter what’s ethically right, you have to be practical.

Where have you experienced this?

Seriously. I see comments like this all the time but no examples.
Just the idea that a developer would care so much to create something like “If user doesn’t consent, ruin their experience”.

Countless sites and I’m not keeping track because I visit more than a few sites and not always recurringly. Typically, the page is frozen and I have to disable cookie consent blocker to decline and then be able to use the website. Are you seriously saying you’ve never encountered this?

Correct. Usually when I just delete a js modal asking me some bullshit, the website works fine.
