Convert to WebExtension

[quassy]

In order to be supported by future versions of Firefox, Cookie Shield has to be converted to a WebExtension.

There are plans to convert to WebExtensions.
But, I can't do this because the contentSettings API is not implemented yet.

Firefox Quantum has been released and I was wondering if you still plan to update this essential and amazing extension? This is one of my top two required extensions. No one has one like this at all.

This add-on cannot be updated until Bug 1291841 is fixed.

Thank you. I hope they fix it soon, there is nothing like CookieShield.

You could take a look how Cookiemaster implements blocking. The solution is not perfect, as it uses Javascript to delete unwanted cookies after they are created and not the Firefox-internal whitelist / blacklist feature, but I guess it's better than nothing.
