Does not disable banner for Google bot #17

Disables banner when visitor is a bot : prevents SEO Engines to confuse your cookie advert message with the main content of your pages;

I tried https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/insights/ today and the above does not seems to be correct.

Look below:

pagespeed insights

It shows the banner and it uses the js to do it because I set display to none, just like your example. Just wanted to let you know that the banner seems to be crawlable after all.

There is a new user agent maybe :/

I've made a test. PageSpeed use a classic browser and is not exactly a bot since you trigger it.
