Privacy group targets website 'cookie terror'

In uBlock Origin I've seen a few domains with the word `cookie` in them and after investigating them, they are serving Javascript that by virtue of being a third party, are scooping up personal data, not protecting it. Of course I blocked these in uBlock manually, but it breaks the site since the banner overlaps the content and I can't read my article, so I have to manually remove the offending HTML element using uBlock. Such a ridiculous farce.
