Open up your uBlock Origin settings and enable the Cookie Notices list. If you're forced to use a shit-tier phone web browser like Chrome or Safari, you can also use the Kill Sticky bookmarklet to clean up most of this crap[1].

If you are a web dev reading this and you've implemented a cookie popup on a website, please do the world a favor and find a different industry to work in.
