shawnna flores (ID: 000000a9dc1c0d14) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 10/13/2022 I started using cookie-jar a couple months ago and have loved it! I used to get irrationally mad when every single website I used had huge pop-ups asking to accept cookies, and felt like I was being spied on every time an ad would pop up for something I was looking at a few days ago. Now I use my web browser and don't want to throw my laptop against the wall because of cookie pop ups.
