Reject all is actually you agreeing on the legitimate interests loophole so this is also problematic.

Yea.. That is true. But I think, if uBlock blocks the banner, consent would not be able to reject/approve anything. Think of it as a fallback solution ๐Ÿ˜‡well in my case.

But some pages stiff you by disabling scroll capability if you hide the banner

[โ€“] Petter1@lemm.ee 2 points 3 months ago

Yea, I tend to not use those sites and search for alternatives or archived versions. Sometimes you can scroll while reloading the page until scrolling is blocked again.

Javascript is the problem there

[โ€“] tetris11@lemmy.ml 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Yep, but some pages load the text content programmatically, so even if you switch to reader mode you only get the blurb

Yeah they get skipped or opened on Brave incognito
