What’s new in version 1.0.12?
Cookie pop-ups are designed to be confusing and make you 'agree' to be tracked. This add-on automatically answers consent pop-ups for you, so you can't be manipulated. Set your preferences once, and let the technology do the rest!
This add-on is built and maintained by workers at Aarhus University in Denmark. We are privacy researchers that got tired of seeing how companies violate the EU's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Because the organisations that enforce the GDPR do not have enough resources, we built this add-on to help them out.
We looked at 680 pop-ups and combined their data processing purposes into 5 categories that you can toggle on or off. Sometimes our categories don't perfectly match those on the website, so then we will choose the more privacy preserving option.
The first version of this add-on works with 4 popular pop-ups: Cookiebot, OneTrust, QuantCast, and TrustArc. The add-on is open source, so anyone can add additional pop-ups through our template system: https://github.com/cavi-au/Consent-O-Matic.

Reviews of consent-o-matic:
I would say it works on around half of the websites, but that still saves me a lot of time and my privacy. On the websites where it does work, it seems to automatically opt out of the legitimate interest, too.
Doesn't work on many sites and slow on those that it does.
Although not perfect, at present it has reduced 99% of the irritation associated with trying to refuse cookie permissions from sites that are not compliant with GDPR. Having a background automated process to respond to cookie settings is fantastic, My biggest frustration used to be news sites, now, for the most part I no longer need to deal with the cokie consents. There are a couple of hiccups but relatively few.
