Cookie request at every click?

[Cerebus]

My introduction message said there was a forum feedback section but I have since been told by the forum admin that it no longer exists, so I can find no place except here to ask:

Why do I keep being bombarded with a cookie request EVERY time I click a single thing? I mean EVERY click…

I have asked admin some hours ago and they must be busy and may get back to me but in the meantime may I ask here?

I click “reject” every time because I thought that was the safest method.

An ongoing problem. I'm now starting to get it once every 3 or 4 days.

Thank you.

Clicking on your link sends me to an “Oops, you cannot access this”, or words to that affect.

That is because I am a newbie I think.

I have asked admin.

I get the cookie request at every click and sometimes it pops up whilst I am typing !

Not to worry. I have been clicking “Reject” for two weeks or so.

It may resolve itself and Admin may reply when they get a chance.

It will go away and come back again erratically, without any reason or logic. It has been happening for the last three years or so. Admin has never reacted to complaints.
I had it for nearly 2 weeks until it stopped yesterday, we’ll see when it comes back. When, not if.

It stays away longer if you accept the cookies. I'm presently using my tablet with Samsung Web browser and the remove adverts add on so don't see adverts. Brave web browser is also good at blocking adverts and pop ups.

Depending on your browser etc., you may benefit from adding the extension Consent-o-matic to it.

Customizable too.

I use Brave on Android and Windows 10 and haven't ever seen this problem. I use all Brave options to stop adverts, pop-ups, tracking, etc.

Seems to work well and I can't remember seeing an advert on any site. I do sometimes lower shields for a couple of sites with issues but they don't show adverts anyway.

Brave browser, never experienced this issue.

Nor the dubious ad banners.

I just accept the cookies, it's the very least bit of tracking that's occurring

We have a bit of difference there. I do NOT uncritically accept all cookies.

Far too anal about privacy

I don't uncritically, but I use a service this site offers (as well as making it more attractive to others of course), so I consider accepting cookies and seeing the occasional advert a reasonable quid pro quo, and they do have some functionality.

On other sites I reject them.

As soon as it starts with the request I immediately delete all browsing/history/ cookies.....re log in...and it's fine for a while....

Several months on the forum and over 400 posts. You should have full access to all sections by now. I'd email the admin to ask why not. Does the PM system work for you?
