eli5: What happens if your browser generally blocks cookies but you click the “accept all cookies” button on a website?
In: Technology
Generally the cookies will be blocked. The “accept all” button on the website is just telling the web server that you give permission for it to send cookies to your browser. If your browser has been configured to block cookies then it’s still going to block any cookies that the server sends. It won’t care whether the site asked for your permission before sending the cookies.
