Ublock to the rescue!
uBlock Origin, to be specific. I don't know if it's still a thing, but uBlock used to be not good in comparison to uBlock Origin.
i currently use ublock origin on firefox. the cookie disclaimer on the site does not allow a mandatory-cookies-only approach. it reads that you must allow them to use your data for sale/tracking
I just discovered (thanks to this site) that you can click the uBlock Origin icon, then "enter element zapper mode" (the lightning bolt). It just gets rid of whatever you want to disappear.
Both are originally from the same author.
The old ublock got taken over by some asshole who removed credit and added shady monetization.
