GDPR compilent opt-in / opt-ot for twitter usage #45

Hi,

I am in the process of implementing a cookie consent dialog for the al-folio template (https://github.com/alshedivat/al-folio/issues/199). It should allow users to individually opt-in / opt-out of using cookies. This means I need to disable / enable the twitter post when the website is displayed in the browser. It is not enough to hide the <div> the plugin is using for the twitter post. I need to prevent the actual API calls from happening, so no cookies are set by twitter.

Is this possible? And how would I achieve this?

@rob-murray I would also be interested in a feature like this. Could you tell us about feasibility with your plugin?
