How to deal with Google's and YouTube's aggressive popups

    Recently I have been getting more that annoyed with Google popups as I am deleteing all the cookies and data when closing Firefox.

    I am sharing what I did, hope it helps :)

    I am using Firefox and a userscript manager.

    For the Script manager, I use Violentmonkey because it is open source and actively developed:
    https://violentmonkey.github.io/
    https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/violentmonkey/

    You can use as well:
    Tampermonkey - originally developed for Chrome (then ported to WebExtensions), and it's closed source
    Greasemonkey - "dad" of script managers on Firefox, but rarely updated

    Once you are set, install the following just install this script from the Greasy Fork repository:
    Google Shut Up!
    https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/410687-google-shut-up
    It will answer YES to any of the consent propmt for you (you can modify the code to your liking)

    Et Voila!
