There’s no EU rule that dictates how sites have to get consent. They just all chose malicious compliance. If a site wanted to, they could make it a click or two.
Even worse: Popups that make it harder to deny than to consent actually violate the law, but no one has taken the effort to drag this through the courts yet.
All those pop ups have done is enshittify the internet. They accomplish nothing.
I still get a lot of them with just “accept” and “read our policy” as options
I zap them with uBO. I refuse to click accept on that shit.
Standard behaviour is for them to act like if you’ve accepted until you say otherwise, it’s all bullshit
Sure, but I refuse to click accept out of principle
What is the non uBO way to achieve this???

There used to be no option at all to avoid cookies. Now there is. That’s progress, not “enshittification”.
