2023-10-19 Awe Best one. I see some comments complaining that this extension breaks some webpages. YES, exactly, because those webpages don't comply with what you choose to do with their cookies. Anyway, don't worry if it breaks something, you can white list specific sites or pause the add on for a while.

2022-04-12 JustAnotherGeek This extension is a piece of garbage. I can block into 6 site if it's for subscribing for 4 per month! And for uninstalling, you ask for complete your survey to proceed to uninstall? Bye!
2022-04-12 Juan Simón It corrupts sites like Gmail, even putting it in the exceptions list.

2022-04-07 IgotaBONGO Don't get me wrong: I do like the general idea of this extension. I mean, with Gorhills uB, uM as default and Cookie Delete as top up, my use case is obvious. Using this extension for a while though, did not leave me convinced. The (settings) interface doesn't give me the idea I can see what it does, nor that I can "control" it. I admit this might be my personal quirk, being a relic from before mindless, overrated "user convenience" days. However, I also recognise what another user wrote here: of course there are always false positives and negatives with "guestimation" and "assumption". But I too have been trying to do things, and failed., in the end turning out it being this extension that blocked it. And due to its earlier mentioned "extreme convenience" it is not clear, nor gives an indication what/ that it is the problem. Bottom line: great idea, great concept, needs a bit of tinkering probably.
