Is there a firefox add-on for mobile that blocka those annoying cookie popups and also bypasses paywall?

[–] ghostBones 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I recently discovered that the Firefox add-on, ublock origin, has in its chooseable block lists, under annoyances, a cookie notice blocker with lots of other annoyance blockers as well.

Can you please share the steps on how to configure ublock ?

[–] ghostBones 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Navigate to the uBlock Origin settings. · Select the "Filter lists" tab. · Scroll to the "Annoyances" section. Place a check mark next to "AdGuard/uBO – Cookie Notices".

Thanks. You're a LEGEND!

You can usually get past a lot of that stuff by just using the reader mode (button in the address bar)

The Ghostery extension supports auto-declining the cookie prompts.
