Blocking the cookie banner element often gives you less cookies than rejecting them. #83

Looking at the code, it's more rejecting consent than never consenting.

I've experienced, that blocking cookie banners with uBlock doesn't plant more cookies. Functional cookies are planted anyway — functionality isn't lost.

This is more of an informational issue of somewhat miscommunication,, and for your interests.

Yeah, you're true, that's why in the first lines of the README file, i've added this parapgraph:

/!\ IMPORTANT: This extension completes uBlock, AdBlock & co, they don't serve the same objectives. We promote usage of adblockers in completion. Never-Consent will (try to) reject consent as possible, it will not block ads, it will not be able block all cookies if sites doesn't care whether you / never-consent said nope.

Maybe my english is not really good and this part should be written in correct english. Sadly, my skills in this language are not really my best skills.
