Hop into your uBlock Origin settings and enable the Cookie Banner filters. Fixed. Enable the Annoyances filters too, while you're in there.

If you're on iOS, the Kill Sticky bookmarklet does a decent job of cleaning these up without breaking most sites: https://www.smokingonabike.com/2024/01/20/take-back-your-web...

The most recent iOS (18) introduced a feature that lets you hide distracting things on the page. (Tap left side of the url field and select “Hide distracting items.” Then just tap what you want to remove and hit done.) I believe that they will stay hidden next time you visit the site.

Regardless, I use Hush and another blocker and it has still come in very handy several times already, so I thought others would want to know about it.
