Is there any extension to prevent/deny cookies banners from websites? (self.firefox)

Is there anything like that? Most of these banners are invasive and I generally decline all by default, besides necessary ones.

I have "I don't care about cookies" extension on desktop, although it doesn't really fix it most of the times. Also, some sites keep showing them if I navigate through it or refresh the page.

But for Android I couldn't manage to find any extension for it.

Is anyone aware of any?

In uBlock Origin you can activate the filter list "uBlock filters - Annoyances" to get rid of most cookie banners

You can also enable the filter "EasyList - Cookie Notices" under Filter Lists > Annoyances.

I don't care about cookies is outdated, bought few months ago by avast. Use "i still don't care about cookies", you can install it in nightly or firefox beta

I use Consent-O-Matic. It's not perfect, but I'd say it works on 50% of websites.

I think the Ghostery addon does this for a very large number of websites.

You could try using UserScripts in order to do that. I was able to do some pretty cool stuff using them! But you need to install a userscript manager for your browser (GreaseMonkey, TamperMonkey, ViolentMonkey). There are a couple of websites where you can find userscripts to install, but my favorite is greasyfork.org

Ghostery has a auto reject feature for cookie banners.

on android we have ublock origin, there are cookie banner filters there but its not activated by default, I activated easylist cookie notices lists for example.
