I’m not sure that my tablet has enough storage space for all the cookies that’d be loaded if I clicked accept there. Take a look at the “Site Vendors” tab!

I right-clicked it and used an "Incognito" window, which I understand jettisons all the cookies when you close it.

Re: Premier property lawyers hacked
Bearing in mind the sums of money involved and all the copies of passports/deeds et al floating around to complete the transactions, I'd suggest anyone buying or selling these days insist that their chain (EA/solicitors) at the very least used encrypted email. It's easy to add on extensions like Mailvelope to work with Outlook.com/Gmail or domain mail with hosts that use Roundcube.
