Summary
Analyze keywords

This addon automatically denies access for all optional cookies in supported sites that provide a GDPR-style prompt for setting that option.

The default site list at time of writing includes all stackexchange related sites (stackoverflow, etc.), zoom.us and ikea.com.

For websites which are not in the default ruleset, you as a user can configure support for them with just a few using the "Configure this site manually" option. If you do this I encourage you use the settings page to submit this custom rule to me so I can get it added to the default ruleset in future releases :)

Also included is a per-website whitelist; if a site is whitelisted you will see its option dialogues as if cookie cutter GDPR auto-deny were not installed at all.

User reviews
news websites are the worst for this and there is no change after installing this on edge. I cant find a page anywhere for this extension to manually add websites or go in "the" settings. What settings, where???? This is just a download and review page. Manage extension doesnt have any of the promised features so that cant be it. Extension website is incredibly technical so if that is it then Im very annoyed because that defeats the purpose of an auto extension (not every user is an IT pro) EDIT: I got it working by doing the DOM setting whatever the hell that is, I honestly cant even remember where I found it. No way will the majority of users know what to do here. You need clear laymen instructions on this page, seriously....

Would have been great but I'm still getting a bunch of popups. I don't see the point with a plugin for this if it doesn't do what it says on the can. Sure, I can add sites manually but that defeats the point. Uninstalling.
