Steps to Reproduce

Go to https://cnn.com

Expected Behavior

The page should not reload.

Actual Behavior

Went to cnn.com and although the site didn't show the cookie banner as expected, the page reloaded. This behaviour might break redirects or pop-ups on some websit

Some sites reload after submitting the cookie banner. I don't think we can do much here. Stopping the reload may break the website state and cause more breakage. The reload will only happen the first time we handle the banner.

@artines1 do you think this is actionable or should we close the issue?

[artines1]

I think we shouldn't change the website's behavior after clicking the banner. The reload could be necessary for the site to operate functionally. So, I agree that this isn't actionable at least on the clicking side.

However, we might be able to tackle this by cookie rules. But, it depends on if cookie rules are available for cnn.com
