My browser extension removes annoying cookie warnings from tens of thousands of european websites.


What is it all about?

Tens of thousands of european websites display a warning about how they use cookies. It's required by UE laws and regulations. It may be a good thing.

For the last year I have been building a browser extension called I don't care about cookies that removes these warnings if you:

  • don't have the time to click on them
  • regularly clean your browser cookies so the warnings reappear daily
  • are aware of their purpose and don't want to be bothered anymore

Try it, it's really effective. It works in Firefox, Chrome, Opera and Internet Explorer.

People report to me hundreds of valid websites (and tons of spam) where they still see these warnings. All of them have to be checked and incorporated into the extension if necessary.

Why do I need you?

  • I'd like to continue with the development and make the extension even bigger. I am working on a version for Safari browser. I'm doing my best to optimize everything so it can work smoothly.

  • In addition, I have a helper who wanted to make a small donation but is on welfare and doesn't even have a credit-card. He helps me by pre-checking, I'd say, a thousand websites each month so I can focus on more important bits.

    I'd like to transfer some money to him, too. He is not yet aware of my plans though :)

My idea is to cover the whole european internet network if possible and grow the number of satisfied users. Currently I have  23 000 of them; in the end there could be millions.


What can you do?

I'll be happy if you can make a contribution, but you can use my extension for free, of course.

If you like my work, please tell others. If you want to make it better, let me know about every website where you still see warnings about cookies.

Thanks for your time and help!
Daniel
