Jeff K (ID: 0000002e792bdcfe) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 06/02/2018 Needs shift selecting, some sites put 15 or 20 cookies and if you want to keep or remove that site you have to select 20 times. Or if there are 75 cookies in a row you know you want to remove...75 clicks required, and its hard to check that box so just too hard. I have over 5,000 cookies I'm trying to clean up so not having shift select makes it too hard to use.

Fabricio da Mota Alves (ID: 000000d5f40329a5) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 02/06/2017 It works just fine. But it´d be nice to have a clear-everything-on-exit feature.
