Safari: Never-Consent not rejecting cookie banners #3246

@chrmod

Description

@chrmod

On Safari, the Never-Consent feature (automatic cookie banner rejection) sometimes fails to work. Cookie consent banners appear and are not automatically dismissed, even though Never-Consent is enabled.

This affects all kinds of websites and does not seem tied to specific consent management platforms. Some users report it working fine while others see consistent failures.

What's going on

Never-Consent relies on content scripts and network filtering working correctly. When Safari fails to initialize the extension's background context or compile network rules on time, Never-Consent may not activate properly.

What you can do

If Never-Consent is not working on a specific website, please report it as a broken page using the Ghostery panel (hamburger menu → Report a broken page). This helps us identify patterns and improve compatibility.
