Cookie consent pop-ups are annoying, but it’s worth understanding what you’re agreeing to.

I didn't read the article but I'm pretty sure reject is the right answer.

Not according to Cookie Monster! He accepts all cookies. Always.

I always wonder if accepting all + blocking 3rd party cookies through browser settings is a sensible choice. One is left with 1st party cookies and a few browser have mechanisms in place to avoid these to be read by non-originating websites...

My browser autodeletes cookies, and blocks cookies popups. Though I have set exceptions for sites, I log in to.

tl;dr: "Reject All" will not break the site.
Also, technically there's still a cookie after that:
The choice is recorded in a consent cookie
The article seems to ride on people's anxiety about walls of text & choices presented by various cookie popups (not all of which even have a "Reject all" option) and IMHO isn't quite clear enough that "Reject all" is the best option for 99% of use cases.

I generally reject all. Then check for those sneaky sites that keep "legitimate interest" cookies ticked. I really doubt their idea of legitimate and my idea of legitimate align in any way.

It’s good enough for me.

I have no idea how an ad servicing company I have never heard of could have a legitimate interest in my online activities.

Horrendous that this isn't just a browser setting that can be applied universally. It's 100% opt out every time.

They have an interest, but it isn't in your best interest.

Ublock Origin has that option!

If I'm given the option, I always choose to reject all. I don't know if the company behind it actually sees that or not, but it makes me feel better anyway.

It's kinda funny that they're "legitimate interest", as that infers that the other ones aren't legitmate.

My flow is usually:
[when my cookie auto decline eztension doesn’t work]
- Look for Reject All button
- If no reject all button just open the site on an archive

This can do it for you on most sites in most browsers.I have it, and it does help, but it seems more often than not I still get a pop up for cookies.

This can do it for you on most sites in most browsers.That's unnecessary. Not clicking anything is legally identical to opting out. So just install uBO and add the cookie list filter and block those annoying banners entirely.

everyone ignored the Do-not-track Header in HTTP requests.That's why I leave this off. Ironically the "Do Not Track" signal is used to more effectively track you.
