Recent reviews
Been great for a one button removal until recent versions. It displays that 0 cookies are removed. Downgrading to 1.0.5 fixes all issues. Turned off automatic updates for now.

5-star review up until today. The June 29th update isn't working with Firefox on Windows. Note - I use Cookie Remover to reset the article counter on CNN.com.
Hopefully I will be able to restore my 5-star review soon.

Not sure how to respond to your e-mail and/or response. The source/reply to address on the e-mail is a dummy Mozilla address that kicks back.
I'll copy/paste my response here.
Thanks for the quick response.
I upgraded to 1.1.1 and, just as a precaution, closed and re-opened Firefox (152.0.4).
CR still isn't working.
Previously is said "0 cookies.....". Now it says "All cookies......."
Immediately after running CR there are still 177 cookies for CNN.com.

So far this is exactly what I was looking for. Instead of going through a menu having to perform at least 3 clicks, it's now a simple single-click solution. Click on the extension icon and badabing badaboom, those pesky cookies are gone.
Just make sure to pin the extension on your toolbar. I see some people leaving a review saying "it doesn't work" but I get the idea that's user error where people forgot to add the icon to the toolbar.

Is Cookie Remover 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 Remover requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.
Risk impact analysis details
- Critical Allows access to all websites, posing a significant security risk as it can monitor and modify data from any visited site.
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.
Cookie Remover is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
