I'm mostly mad at the dark patterns used. The ones that are accept vs decline are fine and usually I just add them to ublock if I'm going to visit that site again. An example of annoying is stack overflow. There are "essential" cookies that I have to accept. And to get there I have to navigate a few places. Luckily they aren't as aggressive about covering up the content so usually I just ignore it. Unfortunately I haven't successfully added this to unlock. And I have an automatic cookie destroyer. Tell me again why your cookies are essential and I have to accept them? (Yes I know cookies are needed to save settings, but maybe only prompt at the time I would need them, like login. I don't need cookies to just browse SO)
