That extension might allow tracking. From their Chrome add-on page:

    When it's needed for the website to work properly, it will automatically accept the cookie policy for you (sometimes it will accept all and sometimes only necessary cookie categories, depending on what's easier to do).

Deleting cookies is insufficient because of browser fingerprinting, which you just consented to.

Well the extension is called "I don't care about cookies", not "I care deeply about my privacy"

True, but considering that the extension was bought in 2022 by Avast, maybe it has its own tracking built in by now or will have something concerning done to it in the future. So even if the user does not care about cookies that much I would still recommend this new extension over "I don't care about cookies"

But this thread stars with someone saying they don’t care about cookies because they’ll delete them anyway. That’s different than saying they don’t care about their privacy, so it’s worth pointing out that accepting every cookie banner does have privacy implications beyond just having cookies placed.

zevv obviously cares about cookies and privacy

Believe it or not some of us don't actually give a damn, we just want the fucking nags to go away.
