Thanks to CTOnews.com netizen Coje_He for the clue delivery! CTOnews.com, December 25, when browsing the web, you may encounter some websites applying for Cookie, especially foreign websites, with a banner at the top or bottom indicating that users need to click "allow" or "reject" to make it disappear.

Mozilla is developing a new feature for its Firefox Firefox browser that will help users get rid of Cookie banners.

Mozilla creates a built-in solution to handle Cookie banners for Firefox users. More precisely, when Firefox enables this feature, it automatically rejects Cookie banners, provided the site has the deny all option. However, if there is only the accept all option, then accept all is selected.

CTOnews.com learned that this feature is currently only available in Firefox Nightly, and you need to turn on a special option:

Enter about:config in the Firefox address bar

Search cookiebanners.service.mode

Double-click the preference and set its value to 2

If you want to use this feature in private browsing mode, you can search for cookiebanners.service.mode.privateBrowsing and set its value to 2

The Cookie file is a file saved locally by the website, which contains some information about the user's visit to the site, and will be retained after closing the browser. This makes it convenient for users who often visit the same website to log in automatically and so on. Some Cookie files are also used for website browsing analysis and targeted advertising display.

According to the regulations of the European Union and some other countries and regions, if the website wants to use the local Cookie to store the necessary information and collect the data of users visiting the site, it needs to pop up banners to prompt.
