I don't like popups either. Every modern web browser already blocks them. This is just about cookie banners. They may be annoying but they let me withdraw consent to cookies.



Every modern browser does not already block them. Cookie banners are popups. Email signup prompts are popups. Requests to allow notifications are popups. Etc.


I was talking about popup windows.

You can block websites from asking for notification permissions.

Cookie banners and email signup prompts are part of the page. I don't consider them popups.


You can consider whatever you like, they are still "things that pop up" that most people simply don't want.
