Komonews now apparently does this crap where it needs to “process” your cookie opt-out, at least on mobile.
Any alternative news sources you’d recommend to follow? Just for stuff like weather or big events.
If you’re unfamiliar with this tactic, when you click “opt-out” the webpage basically displays this widget with a loading bar saying it needs to “process” your request. When in reality you’re asking them to simply not use cookies, so it’s saving the web browser time by not installing any cookies.
Looks like uBlock Origin Zap Mode works. I just never realized you can do that on mobile (on Fennec, basically Firefox). Thanks for reminding me of that!
I tried it and have the problem that I can get into the mode and select stuff but then I’m stuck in it because I nowhere can confirm the selection on mobile. Anyone knowing a solution?
Found it!

Yesss this! I hate it because of this and I am commenting in the hope someone knows a solution.

Yeah sorry I should’ve clarified - it works but I have to read the article in Zap Mode, being very carefully not to click twice on anything.
Unless you meant the othermethod the other person mentioned - in that case disregard what I said.
