If you go to a site and you’re required to Accept Cookies or Remove Ad Blockers, do you continue on?

I don’t. If it’s something I’m really interested in, I do another search if it seem feasible.
 

I accept cookies when it is a site I might come back to, but I don't accept notifications, and I don't remember any site I wanted enough to remove ad blockers, might have done it for a news site in the past.

Nope!
 

With the exception of this forum, I run ad blocker almost exclusively. If I really, really want to read a page on some website, I will pause Ad Blocker for that one page. As for cookies, I will accept, as I generally delete them when clearing the cache.

I don't either.
I'll go searching somewhere else too.

I already have so much crapola going on w/my computer, that I'm going to have Geek squad come and clean it for me and install all the necessary blockers I need.

It would be fair to say that I am a complete ignoramus about computer science and all the related fields that go with it. However, by hook or by crook, I learned that when signing off I can click on: "History," that will show every site visited which I then delete. Then I click on: "Browsing Data," which allows me to clear cookies and unwanted data. Finally, in the control panel there's a drop down menu, I click:"Internet Options." That deletes anything left.
From the time that I learned to do that my computer, my old computer, has never run slow.

So, if I'm interested in a particular site that's set up so that I can't opt out of accepting cookies, I can at least delete them later.
 
I run uBlock Origin, Ghostery, Norton Safe Web, Privacy Badger, and HTTPS Everywhere. Works for me, but it does mean that I have to log into this forum manually. As for accepting cookies -- I don't unless I really need something.
