When I hold down the command key and click a link, then it normally gets opened in a new tab in the background. When I click a link with the right mouse button, a context menu opens. In both cases the original page stays the same and should not change to the link’s referred location.
Sadly it does, when I visit smashingmagazine.com the first time in a new browser session or after having it’s cookie deleted.

According to the net console the moment I click the link then files of consent.cookiebot.com try to get loaded but are blocked as third party content.
