What is Cookie AutoDelete?
Cookie AutoDelete is a user-friendly Chrome extension dedicated to providing users greater control over their online data. The tool automatically deletes unwanted site data including cookies, indexedDB, localstorage, etc. from closed tabs. It features Whitelist and Greylist support, where users can specify the sites whose data they wish to preserve permanently (WhiteList) or until the browser is restarted (GreyList). It also supports manual cleaning and allows easy export or import of Whitelist/Greylist configurations. Note that it doesn't clean data automatically until the 'Auto-clean' setting is enabled.

I have it on Brave with my MacBookPro. Causes my CPU to spike over 100%. When I deactivate, everything returns back to normal. I've testing it four times.
geweldige app.
Absolutně k ničemu - nefunguje! Vůbec lišty cookies neblokuje!
