Unusable with IOS 9 Safari private mode

[green0]

Since Friday, when using private-mode Safari on IOS 9.3.5 (iPad) I have been unable to dismiss the "cookies consent" box. Clicking "I accept" doesn't do anything.

Turning off private mode makes the "I accept" button respond, as does using private mode on IOS 12 - but I like my current iPad setup! Could your technical team please look into getting private-mode IOS 9 Safari working again?

Hi there, we'll flag this to the tech team.

Thanks @EstherMumsnet for passing on my query. Did the tech team have an explanation for the change in behaviour? I'm unfortunately still experiencing the same problem. It seems desirable to allow users to browse in private mode - some posters would not wish to disclose their activity to people with whom they share a computer.
