'Powered by Quantcast' - cookies consent pop-up

This is driving me mad! Is anyone else getting it? Every single time I go to a new page within the site or refresh the page it pops up and nothing can be done unless I click 'I agree', which I do every time. I did try clicking 'show purposes' and going through more options but nothing makes any difference.

Mumsnet are aware but I guess it's pretty low on their list of priorities at the moment. I did notice yesterday that it happened when I looked on Buzzfeed too and also when I went to the Quantcast website so it's probably their fault. But if anyone can point me in the direction of a change in my settings that might make it go away, I'd be very grateful! Confused

Hi, we've asked our tech team to look into this for you.

WordInYourShellLike · 11/02/2019 09:32

Thank you, hope they can sort it out. Or get Quantcast to.

I have this too. I've clicked on agree loads of times.

StarJumpsandaHalf · 14/02/2019 09:31

iPad, mobile site, Safari.

Every new page. More than annoying.

Hi all,

Can we ask, are you using ad block?

category12 · 14/02/2019 12:38

Yes I am

StarJumpsandaHalf · 14/02/2019 14:19

@LilyMumsnet

No, I'm not using an ad blocker on the ipad.

I had a time this morning when it came up with every click, but then later on it just stopped.

LilyMumsnet · 14/02/2019 15:21

Hi all,

Please do continue to let us know whether it's a yes or no to adblock.
Can we also ask what browser you're using?

StarJumpsandaHalf · 14/02/2019 15:51

As an extra piece of information @LilyMumsnet on my lap top I log in via Opera browser where I do use an Ad Blocker and it hasn't been happening with that combination.

Quantcast is also mentioned on this current thread

I've solved this problem now without having to disable Adblock Plus or Privacy Badger (which I was loathe to do) by using an add-on that is available. I went to fanboy.co.nz/ (odd name but legit website) and clicked on 'Add Annoyance List' which then adds this to your browser. I think 'Add Anti-Cookie Messages' might also work. This has worked in Firefox - no idea if it would work in other browsers.

I know this is an old thread but it’s perfect so I am reinstating it. No ad blocker from me and using iPad and safari. This started a week ago and is driving me insane. It happens every time I refresh the page.

Doesn’t happen on my iPhone.

Yesisaidthat · 27/09/2019 07:04

I thought it was me and I was about to throw my iPad out the window !! Seriously annoying. I even went to the quantcast website and I can’t accept the cookies there either.

Fluffy40 · 27/09/2019 09:28

I’m on safari on my iPad, it does it for every page.

SiliconHeaven · 27/09/2019 18:51

I’m on safari on my iPad too. Every. Fucking. Page.
About to stop mumsnetting for good 🤬
