Doesn´t stop the popups :/

Stopped working today. Can't change the setting for new sites any more, it just uses the default. It remembers sites prior to today okay.

I've tried many and this one is much better than the others. It manages to remove the annoying pop-ups that ask for cookie permissions repeatedly... I'm finally free of them! Other extensions require you to pay to have the same functionality that this one offers for FREE. I'm happy to have discovered it. Many thanks to the developer Roman Smunyov. He probado muchos y este es mucho mejor que los demás. Consigue suprimir las molestas ventanas que piden los permisos de las cookies de forma repetida... ¡por fin me he librado de ellas! Otras extensiones tienes que pagar para tener las mismas funciones que esta ofrece GRATIS. Estoy feliz de haberlo descubierto. Muchas gracias al desarrollador Roman Smunyov.
