And fun fact, it’s developed by Danish researchers:

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.

This is awesome, thanks. Now that I have it installed I’d like to try it. Know any websites to test it out?

Enable the plugin while using private mode and see how it handles Google, YouTube and a random news site.

I’ve had much better luck with I still don’t care about cookies. Maybe I was doing something wrong but C-O-M didn’t seem to do much for me.
