web sites asking for consent

When using Firefox, some web sites ask for consent. I tried opening the same sites using the Edge browser, and none of them ask for consent. Is there a setting somewhere in Firefox that controls this? Thx.

Without a screenshot of the issue or what site in question no one can know what is going on with the site.

Hi Drew, what kind of consent?

One thing that comes to mind: Firefox can be set to send a GPC signal, which may trigger some sites to show extra notifications. See: Global Privacy Control.
