Due to a new law introduced last year, almost all of the sites on the internet forced to upfront users how they keep and use their data. This law is great, but the accept cookies messages that appear on each site is really annoying and to be honest no one like it. Most of the people don’t even care to read it. To be frank I’m one out of them. No matter how many time you visit the website the message will keep appearing either on the top bar or at the bottom left-right side. The only way to get rid of this message is to either log in to the site and accept or dismiss the message. If you’ve made up so far, then chances are high that you really want to get rid of annoying accept cookies message. Isn’t it? Fortunately, “I don’t care about cookies” browser extension is there to escort you. Since it is available for both Firefox and Chrome browser, you can either install the Firefox add-on and Chrome extension and it will take care of the rest.
