The add-on “I Don’t Care About Cookies” has been acquired by Avast. Checking add-ons for updates will get a message from the developer announcing the acquisition. I hope the developer will be allowed to maintain the Pale Moon version.

Or at least the IDCAC filter for ABL (I have not been using IDCAC as an extension since ages because it interfered with the Trenitalia train ticket interface, not IDCAC's fault of course).

Re: Avast buys I don’t care about cookies
This is bad news.
I don't trust Avast at all, so I didn't install the update.
There is already a promising fork on GitHub, but now only in web extension form...
[Edit]
Pale moon support added to to-do list.

Well that's nice. I hope it remains maintained so I can swap over if Avast turns out to start leveraging IDCAC to push stuff I don't want

I asked kiboke about this, a couple of days ago.
He confirmed that it will remain the same, for now:
