yeah... this is still being worked on. trying to get the thumbprint thing removed too
What are you selecting in the consent panel? I can't get it to re-pop up for me. I've tried consent all and revoke all, and it still only shows the one time so far.
Thanks, that helps. And you haven't cleared cookies, or are using a private browsing window when it pops up again?
It works for me now. I just selected my choice of cookies maybe 6 or 7 times and now it seems to stick. It happened on my iPhone and on my Mac with Firefox.
No reset of cookies or private browsing.
Just for testing I selected and de-selected other cookies and it works for me now. The window only shows when I hit the fingerprint icon. It also remembers the selection I made.
No idea what caused it before.
Safari (latest non-beta) no extensions. Managed to suppress it but had to go into settings and clear MacRumors cookies for a second time for some reason. It’s still a really bad plugin that’s frustrating to use on an iPhone as you can’t scroll while the stupid hover transitions are firing. Really wish you’d revert to the previous one.
Yeah. The consent form was updated by our ad network to comply with some new standards. We don’t choose it independently but of course it seems there were some issues that arose. Let me know if anyone can reproduce the issues. They say they fixed it and it may require a cookie clearing.
One big issue with the adverts is that some don't allow opt out, which I believe is illegal in the EU. So you might ask these guys politely to conform to EU law.
OK, I've been seeing this problem too – for the past few days. Was initially seeing the fingerprint icon.
It's so bad, I'm seeing it for each & every subsequent page in a thread.
Problem occurs on my iPhone, iPad and iMac. All using Safari (latest release versions of each on iOS 13 and Mojave).
I've tried accepting all (not the option I initially chose, but it's become so annoying I wanted to try to find a solution) but it didn't help.

You using any content blockers or extensions across your devices? If so could you try without?

I used to get the cookie pop up once a week, but it has occurred several times today.
Using Safari 14.0, and ad-blocking extensions (uBlock, Magic Lasso, AdBlock, and AdBlockPlus) (yes, where I live, the web has become unusable without this).
