For context, this popped up as I went to the youtube homepage. This is absurd. Of course, I have uBlock Origin, so it doesn't matter to me regardless, but there's no way to say no.

I started telling uBlock to zap any popup that tries to force me to agree to something
Interesting, how did you do that?
Right click on the element => uB Block element...
If the block element menu option doesn't show up, it can definitely be enabled in uB settings.
Click on the uBlock icon in your top toolbar. The lightning bolt (⚡) will "zap", hiding the content until you refresh the page. The eyedropper operates almost the same way but a little more permanent.
