Brave's Cookiecrumbler: automating cookie notice detection

Brave has open sourced Cookiecrumbler, a tool that automates the detection of cookie consent notices on websites. Cookiecrumbler uses open-source LLMs to efficiently identify and suggest fixes for these notices across various site-specific and language-specific variations. This automation allows human reviewers to focus on refining the blocking rules without compromising core site functions.

Cookiecrumbler is entirely backend-driven and is being explored for browser integration after ensuring it meets privacy standards.
