Extension summary

This extension was built to remove those annoying cookie consent notices, banners and warnings that pop all over the web. It will not give any consent to advertising cookies, nor will it alter cookie behaviour—it just blocks or closes in-page notifications so you don't have to. As such, it's important to note that blocking these notices is not a guarantee that websites won't set any cookies to track you. Furthermore, some websites are particularly forceful in their implementations of cookie consent, so this extension may not work in all cases. It'll work in a lot of them though!!

Cookie Notice Blocker works by injecting scripts into each tab. These scripts use a multitude of techniques to block a wide variety of cookie notices, and each script can be enabled/disabled at your discretion. A core aim of this project was to achieve intelligent blocking without any noticeable impact on computer performance. For example, scripts will only run in the active tab and are throttled if they take a while to execute.

You can disable blocking on individual websites by using the whitelist feature. An open tab's domain can be quickly whitelisted by clicking on the Cookie Notice Blocker button in the Chrome toolbar—the required field in the options page will be filled in automatically. Just one more click and the domain will be whitelisted.

Any changes made to the settings will be instantly reflected in your open tabs. All settings will be synced automatically to your Chrome profile.

Cookie Notice Blocker does not rely on any third-party ad-block database. The filters and algorithms developed for this extension are all a result of my own tests and experiments. Basically, I'm the guy to blame if it doesn't work. On that note: if you have any questions, feature requests or bugs you'd like to report, feel free to leave a comment on the Chrome web store page.

他のクッキー通知を非表示にする拡張機能では表示されてしまうクッキー通知も、Cookie Notice Blockerは非表示に出来るので使っています。 只残念な事にManifest V3に対応していないため、いづれ使えなくなるようです。 その時はNo Cookie Popupsを使う予定です。

Love it, but fails on these sites: weather.com (can't click search) blenderkit.com (authors name in author gallery not clickable) bubble.io (can't go to privacy rules settings ) Somehow it's sometimes blocking things it shouldn't or blocks clicking into certain areas.
