People living in EU. You guys are lucky. These cookie banners and stuff behave differently there because EU forces the reject all button

Every other website i visit has a different tactic of hiding their reject button.

They will even give a second pop up leaving you unable to use the website in hopes of you clicking accept anyway.

Consent-o-matic

Install once, go to a website, wait a few seconds, ans it rejects all those 1273 "partners" for you, together with clicking every hidden "reject" button, so you don't have to

The EU does definitely not have an easy reject all button..it's always a minefield to work out how to disable them. Most take over 30-60 seconds to find out how to disable everything

That doesn't seem to be true. A lot of German publishers do not allow you to proceed without giving consent to cookies and profiling for targeted advertising. They consider this legal because they offer you the alternative of "opting out" by signing up for a paid subscription.

Consent-o-matic addon for browser helps a lot to auto-reject cookies. Do recommend!

Ah, I didn't know this one. Will definitely check. Thanks a lot!

Not in my experience. The reject all button is usually hidden behind the review your choices button. It's fucking bullshit. Accept all is always visible tho.

If I block cookie banners, does that mean I reject cookies because I didn't consent? Because if that's the case, I'm gonna just start blocking them.

The EU does force the reject all button, however companies and websites often don't care about the law; some newspaper in my country straight up ask for a subscription to let you have the privilege of disabling cookies on their ad-ridden dying websites, and many more don't have a "reject all" button.

I try to report some of them but who knows if it does something.

Plus from personal experience; when you setup a GDPR button through Google, by default there is no "reject all" button. Or the equally mandatory "x" to close the popup, thus rejecting cookies. You need to tick a box to enable them.

I report them locally to the Privacy Guarantor(Italy) but I believe this is the EU's page on the topic: https://edps.europa.eu/data-protection/our-role-supervisor/complaints_en
