is there any reason why with settings "accept all cookies" for both standard ones and 3rd party, site gets blocked? I even ERASED ALL MY COOKIES for troubleshooting, but site still popups "1 cookie got blocked" and it won't load without them

Malicious extensions stealing cookies
I just wondered if there is something that could be done in Vivaldi to prevent this? Would be nice if Vivaldi had a feature to block this stuff. I'm actually shocked to read that extensions have got this ability, seems like a major design error in Chromium. https://cointelegraph.com/news/hackers-steal-millions-chrome-plugin-binance-scam
Whitelist for third-party cookies
Is it possible to whitelist domains so that they are never blocked even when "Block All" is selected for Third-Party Cookies?
