- DON'T DO IT! Do you just click YES whenever you see that Accept Cookie notification on a website?
After today, that will change; especially after you see what I discovered!😱
What happens when you DECLINE that notification? does everything still work? and WHEN should you absolutely DECLINE that popup?
Here is everything you need to know to protect your privacy!

@SeanGuy you can just use duck duck go
The websites always offer you cookies, but no one offers you a glass of Milk ! :-D
I prefer random ads. I already have a clear understanding of what I presently need.
nice! thats a good way to look at it
Same - if I've been looking for something I don't need the screen reminding me and reminding me that I want it. If I've made the decision not to buy it until pay-day, I don't want anyone reminding and reminding me.
I prefer no ads!
I don't need cookies, I don't want them, and I'm sick of having to opt-out of receiving them from every dammed website I visit!
Some sites won't even let you in without accepting the cookies.

I don't if there is way to broke it?
True that's my dish tv provider's website
Very helpful, thanks!
Since you asked, I prefer personalized ads. I've often had the experience of scouring amazon and the web for a product that meets my detailed requirements, choosing what I think is the best match, only to have a personalized ad show me a much better match a bit later. (For this reason, I don't usually complete the purchase the same day, but wait to see what my search has wrought.)
Ads I like to see: none. It doesn't matter if it's personal or not. Ads ALWAYS make me less likely to buy whatever they're selling. I also report every ad I see on FB etc. as offensive. I doubt it does anything but I hope it forces FB to actually waste time reviewing my report.
Personal ads ... I'm happy that I came across your CZcams channel...I've learned a lot in just one day of watching your videos...Thank you for sharing.
Thank YOU for hanging out here 👍
Love your stuff. Always informative. Never boring. Thanks again.
Appreciate you being here 🔥
Thanks Liron! It seems like a basic thing , these cookies, but frankly, how often do we read and make at least simple choice of accepting cookies or not? Most often we just push "agree " and are in a hurry to get to the contents, aren't we? Thanks for reminding me just to stop and think for a second :) ! Good luck! Linas
A very important topic, well explained. Nice work.
Very instructive and pleasant to watch. Thank you
Thank for educational videos and keeping us in the know and making us safe fabulous info as per usual
Jus tfound your channel and I love it! Thanks dude 🐨
Thanks for the sub and more to come!
Just subscribed and also added Privacy Badger. Thank you.
awesomeness!
Thanks, Liron I just added Privacy Badger to my Chrome browser.
Liron you are a superstar ...taught me a lot here, though i do periodically wipe all my cookies and i have trackers blocked permanently...but i will be more vigilant about accepting them now!...i always knew they were evil little things! ...thanks for the great tip regarding privacy badger ...i use opera and it is compatible!
Awesome! Thanks for the message and hanging out here 👍 more to come 🔥
Opera gx?
Thank you for this video.
It was/is very informative and helpful. Thank you for your time.
Great information! Thanks definitely got a few really useful tips. Re: phones:....had a Huawei for two years now, by far the BEST PHONE I've had. iPhones are SPY phones.
Personal ads - if I'm gonna see ads I'd rather have them tailored to me.
Yip. Same.
@Ayan Majumdar haha so far I haven't bought anything off those ads!
yes ..good info...many need to know about this..thanks
Very well explained, thank you!
You're very welcome!
Hi Mr. Segev, thank you for all your help and advice.
question: ? do You-Tube videos have cookies or Mal-ware ?.
Personal ads, only, if I've been search for a product or service. Very educational as always. Thanks... 😎
Appreciate you being here and thanks for the message!
This is crazy
Yay a new Liron vid!
Dear Mr. Segev, thank you for all your help & advice, you are very helpful.
question: ? Do You-Tube videos have cookies or malware?.
Congrats on the big milestone 🎈🎉 I'll be very careful with the cookies.
thank you for being here!
Hi Liron. You are obviously South African. I simply love your show and you are co cool Bru. Love from cold Gautengh
hey bru - appreciate you hanging out here! and keep safe out there (and hopefully loadshedding doesn't take out your heater!!!)
Thanks liron, this was really helpful....
Appreciate you being here
@@LironSegev I prefer personalized ads btw coz I would like to know about the stuff I like ....but sometimes random ads can be alright just as a refresher
As far as ads go, I prefer randomized ones. I already know what my preferences are and random ads might open something else up to me that I hadn’t even thought of before.
I love your videos. One suggestion for improvement if I may. Can you turn down the volume on the intros and transitions (or turn up your mic volume to even them out)? They are extremely loud. Especially when wearing headphones it hurts my ears. Thanks! 🙂
Hey Liron!
If a website has an 'ACCEPT COOKIES' button, but no ;DECLINE' button, and the only way to see the full screen is to accept. Does this override my Google settings, which I chose no third party?
Cheers.
very nice i want to ask if there is a tool to get the deleted photos from iPhone 8 never backed up
what about the ones that dont let you unselect ? They just send you to a website, I always turn off the ones i can but there are some 3rd party ones I just turn off???
Thanks for the video liron
Any time!
@Liron Segev This video in response to the post about approving the techiedog, but not allowing him to access or delete my cookies or just coincidence? Either way great video, keep up the good work sir.
none, I use adblock.
I see this all the time but what I do is I decline them. Thanks for telling me which kind of cookies is which. The third-party ones I tend to delete every time I close my browser. I honestly decline every kind I come across. That way I don't get tracked every single time.
I like the personalized and enhanced website experience so if the website lets me, I unselect third-party. I also just use the extension and I set what I want for websites I frequent often
I do that sometimes too.
Do you have a video on how to stop windows 11 from trying to download that ez to understand thanks Paul 😊
Hey man, something you should check out, what dns u using now a days, when cloudflare came out it did increase speed but lately I'm noticing they don't really do anything anymore, been looking for a 2020 mid year dns review for some time now but can't find anything. Open Dns seems to come up as quickest lately. Hope u well dude!!
hmmm interesting - will check it out. I use the app to tell me which is the current fastest DNS: czcams.com/video/ywBWx0WyqBU/video.html
@@LironSegev ye I got it, thanks to your vid, and lately open Dns is fastest and most reliable, but using no dns gives me less grief, only since mid this year. Just sharing as no one can claim THIS is the dns to be using or NOT TO USE, right now 2020. Cloudflare was the last big thing. And that was 2019.
love the vids keep it up!
Appreciate you being here 👍
My man Liron saying it like it is, just say "no" to cookies!
Definitely personal ads relating to things I'm looking for. Thanks for the info!
yip! I agree too! thanks for watching and hanging out here!
@@LironSegev you're welcome! I was pretty "techie" about 30 years ago. Your videos help keep me relevant. Lol. Thank you! I made sure to forward to family and friends. They appreciate you too!
Best. Comment. Ever 💙💙💙
90% of the time there's a Cookie notification there is NO option to refuse. Especially when on mobile.
I usually see:
[accept] [check settings]
as the only key prompts.
Also there's often no [X] in top right corner of notification, which is obscures the page I'm trying to read.
So there's no choice other than exit page and find an alternative or ACCEPT against wishes.
Have you any suggestions with this???
Probably a VPN is your best answer
Im pretty sure they do that on purpose and i will avoid any website that won't make it easy to refuse cookies. That will teach them in the end.
I like you.. your a very pleasant Man.. thanks for the info.. I just subscribed..
Sadly I ALWAYS accept cookies....oatmeal/chocolate chip are my favorite but for some reason they always taste stale when obtained online......
It's not so much the ads that bother me, it is the number of them that inundate me to the point I can barely see the webpage.
Ofc I would like personal ads but not at the cost of my personal information. I disabled coookies but then I wasn't allowed to comment on this video or even sign in to my gmail. I had to re- enable the cookies... What's that about??
Thanks so much your information how can I do that with my Android phone ????
what about legitimate interest ?
there is tons of checkboxes, which can be sometimes deselected.
does "block 3rd party cookies" works also for " legitimate interest"? and disable it?
Sometimes, it's too timeconsuming to deselect like 50 checkboxes.
I am on the fence about personalised ads in that i would prefer to have content that I care about but I refuse (always turn off) to give away my information that supposedly is anonymous but we've seen that it can still be tracked to the individual. I DO NOT WANT MY INFORMATION OUT THERE. The only ones that should have my information are my employer, utility companies, telephone, and other businesses that I do business with directly. Even that is a problem these days as they also sale your info while not giving you an option to opt-out.
yip. A good VPN will is a good step but nothing is guaranteed to give you 100% complete control of your data.
Let's say a cookie pop-up notice appears when I visit a website. If I choose to accept all cookies for that specific site, but simultaneously have third-party cookies blocked in my browser settings, what would happen?
I do appreciate you putting up this video, but as I am not familiar with website jargon etc. I didn't understand what you were taking about. One reason, is you went too fast! I am not trying to be rude or anything but I watched it twice and I didn't understand it or get it. BTW, the British accent is my favorite but that is another reason I wish you would do another video but go slower as your accent is pretty heavy. My boyfriend of 34 years mother is from South Hampton and her whole family is still there. Again, I thank you and I will subscribe and I'll be looking for more of your videos!
Websites block you from viewing their pages unless you accept their cookies.
Then you search for another one
Liron, will i get fined and get arrested too if I decline it I'm very scared and very concerned and very worried about it 😰😰😰
Unfortunately I can't add extensions on my phone and if the browser has it's very few. So if the site lets me I have to decline cookies
I run Firefox with DuckDuckGo Privacy essentials with Adblock Plus, Ghostery, NoScript and Privacy Badger on Manjaro KDE. Sorted.
Quick question, random sites be using google and youtube cookies, am i safe? I mean can they find out my account name?
Do you have any idea how to login in facebook without accepting cookies?
Thanks I’m getting rid of the cookie tomorrow did not know it was getting my storage bigger so I can’t download games and apps because it’s making it get to big for my installation to get the app or game
should i accept cookies on website that use adobe flash player?
I just came accros your video. Its interesting that you are in such a fear about cookies. The fact is only amteurs use cookies. Because its the easy way to track you. The more elegant way is that you are simply leaving footprints everywhrere. And I collect everything about you when you are using a services i build - what you are looking at, the way you move your mouse. This tells so much about the way you interact with what you see. If you are ordering a salat but you were staring multiple times at the delicius pizza - I knew your desire then. Sometimes the simple things get very usefull. Cheers & relax.
It's interesting that you feel the urge to comment on a 2 year old video. Technology may have changed just a little bit since then. Cheers and relax
What does it mean when website warn me that I don’t have the required cookie installed¿
I see many times cookie bar across the page and the back is locked or dark if you want to read anything you have to click cookies :(
Thank you
Welcome!
Does this also work on iPhone?
Help me. I normally always refuse all cookies I can but I just accidentally hit accept all on a site. How do I fix this???
Random ads-because maybe I might see something I didn't know I might be interested in.
Oooo nice! 🔥
thank you
You're welcome
I only want to see ads for things that I am interested in, but I certainly do not want any unknown or secret entity collecting or collating data about what I may be interested in without my specifically given permission. It is therefore probably difficult to faithfully fullfil both requirements in intent and practice.
great point!
I could care less about the cookies and more for the stupid reason that I have to agree to every new website. This was not happening two years ago. This is so annoying. Can I just choose one setting to agree to every future cookie?
I use a VPN... is it as good as the Personal badger?
Personalised ads for me. Thanks for the interesting video.
You're welcome!
So you just agree to it. It’s not a big deal or ?
Don't click the cookie from party number three
Keep unknown trackers from watching you and me
Protect your data and browsing history
Cookies shouldn't live on your PC
usb device not recognized on window 11 is fix?
i need elp i got an old laptop that i wonat school and my roblox wont load nomatter what please help me
It's scary how they got my email and inundate it with similar products that were searched before. Always delete cookies first thing in the morning.
I accepted some cookies and now if i Type one letter in google on my android it kicks me. I tried everything amd nothing works
They seem to know how old I am, and the recurrent ad topic I get is about earwax. Apart from being, a. icky and b, irrelevant, I'd really rather generic any age ads ... can they possibly be worse...?
If you clear the cookies and site data. Are the cookies and site data you pressed accept on gone?
Yes
Cute dog 🐕🐕🐕
Personal ads only that are tailored to my preference
If someone is stealing your cookies how do you get rid of the hacker?
You can tell when cookies have been accepted because all the time, you see pictures of things you were chatting about, looking up days ago.
I really really want your intro.
we value your privacy is a thing you see a lot of online now. if you value my privacy dont ask me to let you put pieces of code on my device to spy on me then.
but what if the cookies do not have decline buttons
Personalised
To answer your question, I’d actually prefer personalized ads, even though that means more data collection about me
I agree. We are going to get ads, might as well be something we care about...
So if you clear the cookies they no longer have access to your data and things you search?
Correct.
… I noped out of there the moment I saw personal information
Does cookie stealing only happened when you are in a public wifi?
no - every site you go to regardless of how you connect to it. Can be via your phone or a hotspot or your home's internet
Great video Liron, Yes I'm the one 'That' believed that I have to accept cookies in order to progress through a specific website. That will now change. Thank you for the info.
In answer to your question, I would just prefer content just relating to my interests.
now you are armed with the info! thanks for watching and being here!
Sometimes accept is the only option a available
I prefer no adverts at all, if I plan to purchase an item, I do the research and make a decision.
I will always prefer no ads at all. Not likely, and yep, they fund websites, but that doesn’t mean I like them. For me it’s a matter of personal sanity to do what I can to escape their falsehoods and manipulation.
Personally, I use adblocker. Ad personalization sounds scary. Who knows what information conpanies have about us. Who knows what data they're collecting about us.
what if you dont answer and just click it it to close it? Please answer this..have done that alot!!
If you didn't accept it should ask you the next time you go to the site.
if you search up a link or a website, click the lock next to the URL and you can see what and how many cookies are in use
i always eat the cookies
I prefer random ads so I'm not tempted to buy anything. it is really eerie when ads keep showing you stuff from a website you visited and you feel a little bit stalked.
Nowadays, many sites don't work if you deny cookies (even third party cookies).
I use Brave Browser, and prefer NO ads.
so here is a question: if you block the ads, the website loses money and can't afford to keep it going, would you be ok with paying a monthly fee instead of ads? Just like CZcams Red - you pay a monthly fee and get no ads. So CZcams can keep providing its service.
Is there any way to stop it if you already did it please say yes
