I hate the cookie consent popups, especially on mobile when it takes up half the screen while browsing. They are an artefact of some ill conceived law which does not amount to any practical informed awareness or consent. I set my cookie policy locally with Brave so it seems redundant to have to click to close these popups across the web. Is there a way to block this crap? That alone would make Brave 10 times better than any other browser.

Very much agree. This would be a very welcome usability feature.

@Pierre61 @discodisco,
We actually have an open issue to add this functionality already:
I’ve added your reports to the Github thread on your behalf for the devs to review.
