[QUOTE="ForgottenSeer 85179, post: 905537"] Changing browser config doesn't change anything if the browser want telemetry data but if the browser doesn't respect user settings in UI, it's not very trustworthy. Normal telemetry isn't also bad. Edge even respect configured Windows privacy settings and "copy" these to browser settings which doesn't any other browser provide. Cookie banner are mostly needed as these (if implemented correctly) are Opt-In's or (if wrong implemented) Opt-Out's. Both are need user confirmation and get saved in Cookies so you only get a problem with such if you clean often Cookies which just doesn't make sense. (blocking 3th party Cookies is still recommend!) Newsletter aren't a problem. Just don't register your mail if you don't want it. Or use random/ fake Email accounts for that. I never see any floating video annoyances. Examples? Anti-Adblock popups are gone if you doesn't block Ads ;) Sites are need money or your data. If you doesn't allow any, they of course display such and personally i find that legit. Websites can also determine which stuff get blocked [/QUOTE]
