For those that don't know, Firefox has in-built support for automatically rejecting cookies and blocking the cookie banners from popping up.

To enable this feature, go to about:config, and perform the following:

  • change cookiebanners.service.mode from 0 to 2

To have this functionality in Private browsing mode, you should also:

  • change cookiebanners.service.mode.privateBrowsing from 0 to 2.

All Power to the People!

This isn't anything new. Firefox lost the lead ages ago (thanks, Mozilla):

a chrome reskin, cryptominer and the CEO's an anti-LGBT fascist. no thanks.

The cryptominer part is just FUD. Learn how it works. And the browser itself is way more private then FF by default.

The CEO was one also of the cofounders of Mozilla. How ironic.

Also, the actual CEO of Mozilla is doing a great job... At increasing her paycheck while firing developers:

Mozilla is one of the most corrupt orgs out there, right now.
