What does HackerNews think of I-Dont-Care-About-Cookies?

Debloated fork of the extension "I don't care about cookies" (WIP)

Language: JavaScript

#24 in Firefox
Just in case you're not aware, a couple of options. It's possible (though who knows for how long) to add the filter list[1] used by IDCAC directly to uBO. The extension was forked[2] prior to acquisition if that is preferable. EasyList Cookie is available as a toggleable list on uBlock Origin, which hides many consent prompts - though only visually if I'm understanding correctly, so better to combine with an autodelete extension.

It’s too early to make any definitive judgements on the future of this extension. There are many obvious ways that this acquisition could—and let’s be honest, probably will—go badly for the end user. I was hoping that someone could come up with a plausible optimistic outcome.

We will know definitively when the next updates to the extension comes out. Until then we are all just speculating.

That being said, the security consciousness user should probably switch to a pre-acquisition fork such as https://github.com/OhMyGuus/I-Dont-Care-About-Cookies
