so in the past ff had an option where you went to a site, it gives you a prompt to what cookies to allow or deny from being put on your computer.

Im looking for a toggle switch add on like “no script” where I can toggle on and off and build a database of cookies are are and not allowed.

cue the ones who say, well just have the browser delete it when you close the browser. yea, I dont want them on my computers at all. once their on your pc, the point of blocking cookies is lost.

I have a strong feeling this was removed purposely, just like how ff out of the box has no security whatsoever and needs some heavy configuring/hardening. im guessing this is google paying ff and telling them to leave the doors unlocked.

most cookies need to be blocked. there are just a small amount that are needed. and I dont want to go on a crazy marathon to start editing cookies in ff. they purposely make the UI difficult for that.
