Description

This is kind of strange behaviour and a bit difficult to describe, but I try my best.

I've installed the Vue.js devtools extension in Google Chrome (https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/vuejs-devtools/nhdogjmejiglipccpnnnanhbledajbpd). When visiting websites, that use the Cookiebot by Usercentrics, and do not consent to all cookies, some (maybe all) javascript of the website stops working. Sometimes I can't even click on the main menu items.

When either consenting to all types of cookies or disabling the Vue.js devtools the site works as expected. I observed this behaviour on at least the following two sites:

Research direction

Reproduce the issue in Chrome with Vue.js devtools enabled on evaerk.dk and jannieoestergaard.dk, comparing Cookiebot states with and without full consent. Trace how the devtools extension interacts with the sites' JavaScript when consent is restricted. Done means the sites remain usable while the devtools extension is enabled without requiring consent to all cookie types.
