Hi @uBlock-user, as you have scriplets to set local items and session items, could you also consider adding a scriplet that allows to set cookies on websites? This could be useful as it'd allow automatically to force specific settings on websites or restore them if the browser cache has been emptied.
\n
One use case: if you set a cookie on Youtube https://www.youtube.com/ which Name is SOCS and Value is CAESEwgDEgk1MjE4NjcxMTIaAmVuIAEaBgiAl7ihBg, that would allow to skip the GDPR dialog automatically with the setting \"Reject all\".
