    my bad, right - css is limited to all google pages (incl translate.google.nl)

    for the redirect i need to dig - i only had it once with an open tab.

    someone pointed out this extension
    https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/google-consent
    From images i think it only eliminates the popup, not the redirect

    after some minutes - youtube.com throws a 302 redirect location in header - and browser need to catch it and remove the redirect. Not sure if [...]monkey can do this, didn't find that much scripts/questions/topics. Otherwise once the consent pages has been loaded it wont load again, it could be a long lasting cookie
    Code:
    set-cookie
        CONSENT=PENDING+324; expires=Fri, 01-Jan-2038 00:00:00 GMT; path=/; domain=.youtube.com

    Can you try with deleting your cookies and just block 'consent.youtube.com' (and 'consent.google.com' for Google Search) from setting cookies as gwarser suggested?

    Well, like you said it sometimes is the only way to fix problems. On some other site I had to allow privacy.io otherwise embedded content from YouTube and Instagram wouldn't work. I don't see what the big deal is as long as you allow it only for those specific sites.

    I already see what the problem is. It seems to indeed block the pop-up but it also breaks autoplay.

    That's not a bug, it's a feature, in my opinion. ;)

    Not possible if your Pale Moon is set correctly to delete cookies on exit.
    You can check with CCleaner:

    If you don't want to, thank you for your patience anyway.:thumb:

    As a matter of fact, I checked in Pale Moon on my main system, which is Linux Mint.
    No way CCleaner.exe will work on that, haha.

    But I manage my cookies with CookieKeeper (Classic Add-ons Archive; caa:addon/cookiekeeper).
    So they get deleted on exit, except the ones I want to keep. :)

    Someone posted a working way to block the EU Google Consent pop-up (not the redirect):
    https://old.reddit.com/r/uBlockOrig...gle_consent_new_solution_works_on_chrome_and/

    Code:
    !#if env_firefox
    www.google.*##^script:has-text(consentCookiePayload)
    !#endif
    !#if env_chromium
    www.google.*##+js(acis, document.cookie, YES+)
    !#endif
    Tested it on both Firefox and Ungoogled Chromium and it worked (on www.google.nl).

    [Edit]
    The rule:
    Code:
    www.google.*##+js(acis, document.cookie, YES+)
    will work on Firefox as well.
    See here.

    Thanks!

    Sometimes I go there, but I haven't posted for quite some time now. You never know what kind of toxic replies you will get. Or worse.
    And I've blocked all of M.A.T.'s avatars with the element picker. Haha.

    Well the thing is, with your tweak videos will never autoplay. No matter if you directly click on a video or open it in the background and go to this tab, you will always have to click on the play button. This is very unhandy, so I rather deal with the annoying alert that seems to pop-up once per session. But I hope this somehow can be removed in the future without breaking autoplay.

    blocking the redirect
    https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/google-consent/
    works.

    and this css against the rest of yt consent dialogs and login poups
    Code:
    #guide,
    #consent-bump,
    iron-overlay-backdrop,
    iron-overlay-backdrop.opened,
    #dialog.yt-upsell-dialog-renderer
    {
        display: none !important;
    }
    i am much more familiar with css than digging for uBo code as Sampei cited.

    I'm having problems again, I guess it's because I'm using certain filter lists. On Facebook I want the video to work, which script do I need to allow? I'm almost certain that I won't have any problems figuring this out with Ghostery.

    In such cases the first thing you should do, is looking at the log. If you can't find the culprit, then it's just a matter of try and error. This means that you have to disable the filter lists one by one. But the most easy way is of course to whitelist the site. By the way, the video shows a very attractive young woman.

    @Rasheed187

    I tried some different approaches based on events from the logger but nothing really worked.

    UBO has already added a filter in

    uBlock filters - Privacy

    for blocking FLoC

    You can find it at the bottom of the list:


    Code:
    ! https://github.com/uBlockOrigin/uBlock-issues/issues/1553
    !#if env_chromium
    *##+js(set, document.interestCohort, undefined)
    !#endif

    Update first.;)

    It is best not to rely on the filter alone in UBO.;):)

    I wonder for how long uBO will work in Chrome/Chromium, given the fact that Manifest v3 will be implemented for extensions...

    In my country there is a proverb that can be adapted to your question:

    Did you want the bicycle?
    Then pedal......

    You mean:
    If you mean Chromium is my bicycle, well not really, it's my backup browser for the few sites (mostly Google ones :mad:), that don't work really well in Firefox.

    I don't remember how many total rules you use in your Chrome-based browser.
    You live well the same with the maximum number of rules allowed with v.3.
