Pro tip, ghostery add-on for Firefox. Works on both desktop and mobile. Automatically goes through the cookie pop up when you load a page, denying all, among other functions.
Better SiteBleacher, it delete all this crap after leaving the page. With this “you have never visited this page”. (Not updated several years, but works as it should, because this crap on the sites is still the same)
The Firefox addon link is dead and searching Firefox addons for the name doesn’t yield it or anything like it either…
Well, but there are alternative extensions which do the same, clear cookies and all related datas from the websites when you leave them, except the whitelisted sites. I also used it before, but SiteBleacher is easier to handle

But in the Mozilla store read “About this Extension”
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/cookie-autodelete/
There are also other FOSS extensions with a similar function.

Also some others, but they are proprietary soft.
You get tracking cookies, local storages, IndexedDBs, service workers, cache storages, filesystems, webSQLs, pixel trackers and if you are nice enough, also an browser hijacker or you are part of our great botnet community, as a little gift.
Me at 1am: Is it worth a cookie to see Alexandra Daddario’s latest outfit?
My website proudly does not have tracking cookies. Well, once you get past the landing page to the actual app.
Literally all people on regular browsers are soo transparent?
I would never trust Firefoxes builtin blocking even with Arkenfox, so noscript with nothing loading by default, and opt-in on every single website, is the way to go.
