Cookie Consent Hider Firefox

Cookie Consent Hider

By: alstr
Hides fixed-position cookie consent dialogs, banners, etc.

Features & Capabilities

When activated, Cookie Consent Hider searches the page DOM for any elements relating to fixed-position cookie consent dialogs, and adds CSS styling to hide them.

No cookies are accepted or rejected by the extension; it simply hides UI elements, so the user can browse the page without having to set any preferences.

By default, the extension is set to 'automatic' mode, meaning it runs for every website loaded. This can be changed to 'manual', so it only runs when the page action icon is pressed.

<b>If the extension is set to automatic mode, the extension will not pick up any elements added to the DOM after page load. In this case, it is advised to try toggling the extension off/on via the page action icon to trigger a rerun.</b>

A sidebar menu is available via Ctrl/Cmd+Shift+X for viewing a log of elements that have been modified, and these can be individually toggled.

This extension will not work with every cookie consent dialog, nor is it designed to.

hide them is not a solution because some sites don't work well if they are only hidden. a better way would be to accept (or not) the cookie question.

Is Cookie Consent Hider Safe?

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Cookie Consent Hider requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.
