Simply enable the “cookie notices” list in ublock origin (available on every platform now, even iOS). According to the EU law if you don’t click accept it’s equivalent to denying.

The result is the same. Technically there's no such thing as denying, only providing (explicit) consent. If consent is required and no consent is provided, then there is no ground for processing.

How do you object to the site's legitimate interest use of your personal data? That is a legal grounds for processing, which can be enabled by default as long as you are provided with an option to actively object.

Also: the consent has to be informed consent. Me clicking away a nag banner, even if I click "accept" isn't informed consent by the definition of the law.

You want to share my data with your 300+ "partners" legally? Good luck informing me about all the ways in which every of those single partners is using my data. If you are unable to inform me I can't give consent, even if I click "Accept all". That is however a you-problem, not a me-problem. If you share my data nontheless you are breaking the law.

Breaks many websites though and you'll be wondering why something doesn't work and then you have to remember you checked that ublock checkbox a few months ago.

I think in the last 12 months of using that unlock list I've only counted less than five times where sites have broken with that list enabled, I don't have to even disable the entire list. You just disable u-block for that specific site

Complain and use a different site. There are only few websites which offer a truly unique service. If enough complain and walk away, something might finally change.

[worble]

I've never seen a website break from this, got any examples?

[nextlevelwizard]

If a website gets broken by this it isn’t a site worth visiting

Thanks for the warning, I'd turned on those lists when I read the parent comment and would not have had a good time troubleshooting that.

This extension gives you more choice than denying or allowing everything though, you get granular choice automatically applied to all websites where it works

[cocoto]

I think most people don’t want to give consent to any of this so a simple block list is enough.

But I don't want to auto deny. I want my shopping carts to work. I want websites to save my login and preferences. I just don't want the pop-ups. So this extension is great.

Login, preferences, or shopping cart cookies (aka “functional cookies”) do not need consent. I never saw a banner that allowed me to disable them.
