No Matter How Many Billions Of Times...

...I'm told that you respect my privacy the answer is always 'reject all'. And the cycle of getting logged out, trying to log back in, and then being told again that you accept my privacy, is getting a little tedious. Can it be stopped ?

If you reject cookies then AB can’t remember your log in details

[TheDevil]

You need to “Accept” if you don’t you pretty much can’t use AB.

When GDPR came out I wanted to reject everything and everywhere but had the issue you’re having, the spare editor just sent me a link to the AB terms of use, issue was I couldn’t read it without accepting cookies

[Old_Geezer]

It's settled down now, after using the back button.

No, normally it works because the rejected stuff is the non-essential advert spy stuff. Essential stuff should be excluded. But occassionally this place has a fit, and just now was a very very bad one.

[Old_Geezer]

Whoops spoke too soon. Another request, another back button needed.

[TheDevil]

Oh that sounds like it may be different to what i experienced then

[Old_Geezer]

This really has to stop, whatever the cause.
It's beyond tolerance.

Try a hard reboot Old Geezer, it might clear the hiccup.

Not sure violence is the answer. :-)

I get it everyday on work computer - yet when I do the manage options it has stored my previous choice, and I still have to login.

No problem on my ipad.

I wish there was a global "reject all" that covered every single site!

I'm trying a different browser. Don't know why it's suddenly 100x worse though.

I had been looking on how to clear cache on an Android tablet but a) all I find are incorrect instructions on clearing individual apps, and b) no indication regarding, if one did so, whether all the open tabs would be lost (disaster).

[Old_Geezer]

Point was, it was occurring on the android mobile too.

[Old_Geezer]

Just saying, that while the issue seems to be evident just in my preferred browser, suggesting that's related, it is also true that the issue is only experienced on this site, suggesting this site's cookie demand code has a flaw also.

[aelmpvw]

i use an extension called I don't care about cookies ...

[Old_Geezer]

Yeah, as I recall, unless I am mistaken, it does exactly the opposite of what one wants, and agrees to any and all spying rather than denying any spying at all. Necessary data is useful, the rest unacceptable.

Didn't expect this post to bring it back to the 'latest', it was just a comment to the staff FTA. Must still be a fresh thread I guess.

Can you save your AB login user name and password ?
Loging back in is then quick and easy, just 1 click.
If you have a phone that has TouchID, just your fingerprint lets you back in.

[Old_Geezer]

Yes but the demand for spying permission comes at the same time or earlier than the login page and sits on top; so logs one out immediately. Try to log in, and it just repeats. It's utterly ridiculous.

OG, why don't you just "accept all"? I have, and haven't noticed any difference. The only person you are bothering by this, is you x

[Old_Geezer]

It's bad enough having to set the right not to be monitored; unacceptable to have that option destroyed by continuous harassment. The very idea individuals should capitulate and have such a right removed in order to get peace, is no solution. The answer is for both site owner and browser creator to fix whatever they've got wrong.

[Mamyalynne]

You know the reason it happens and you know the solution, if you stick to your guns then it's self inflicted I'm afraid.

Just don't log off.
