This doesn't work in Microsoft Edge. It works fantastic in Firefox and elsewhere. But in Edge it causes new tabs to just flash and not work.

Almost perfect, but Whitelist is not taken into account when removing site data (only cookies)

Automatic deletion of unwanted cookies periodically (I go with every 24 hours) makes this extension the best cookie-editor. Get it for your other browsers too if you can.
