 A few times recently, while using Debian unstable with KDE on Wayland, browsing with Firefox Nightly, I've had a pop-up come up in the "System Tray" area that starts out with "A few settings are required to be able to use certain functions. This controls whether a service is allowed to set cookies or not."

Here's a link to a screenshot of the second window:

And the first:

The box gives no indication of what generated this message, except that it was "Realized through Klaro". When I click on the "Go to Cookies Settings" button, I get taken to another anonymous box with a bunch of settings. I didn't pay attention to what those settings are, because, being wary of anonymous pop-ups and their shenanigans, I just closed the pop-ups, assuming they were some sort of scammer attempt from some web-page I had hit.

If this is a legit pop-up, it REALLY needs to identify who it's from. I'm not about to start giving permissions based on some rando pop-up.

Anyone who can shed light on this? Thanks!
