Ghostery, along with blocking trackers, has a “Never Consent” feature that declines these automatically. Since it understands the underlying platform rather than the text shown to the user, it should give the right answer (and it’ll block the tracking cookies anyway).
That said, Ghostery has had some telemetry drama in the past and not everyone trusts them, so despite this being super useful, don’t install it without a bit of research.
Nice find. It’s a Claude project to at least some degree, which is a bit of a bad smell for me, but I agree that people should be cautious about Ghostery so it’s good to have options.

I’d just prefer uBO with Consent-o-Matic cookie blocking
Oh, I was under the impression Consent-o-Matic can only agree to cookies, rather than refuse them?
Oh, it can do both.
Niiiiice, this lets me get away from Ghostery - thanks for the heads-up!

I forgot about ghostery. Looked into them. Seems they’re still selling data as a business model.
However I did find this extension and I’m wondering if it’s legit or not… not too many people using it, it seems… https://github.com/mjkuniversal/auto-reject-cookies
