I recall sites used to ask for consent before installing cookies.

But now they just install them, and I have to spend a lot of time getting rid of them.

How can I give or withold permission BEFORE they're installed?

hi, the least time consuming way to manage this would be to set firefox to keep cookies until you close the browser only & set manual exceptions for the few sites you want to stay logged-in across multiple sessions.
