Blocking scripts without data-category

[ehilber]

Hi! I'm implementing CookieConsent 3.0.1. and use the following tag-manager code.

<script defer> (function(w,d,s,l,i){w[l]=w[l]||[];w[l].push({'gtm.start': new Date().getTime(),event:'gtm.js'});var f=d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0], j=d.createElement(s),dl=l!='dataLayer'?'&l='+l:'';j.async=true;j.src= 'https://www.googletagmanager.com/gtm.js?id='+i+dl;f.parentNode.insertBefore(j,f); })(window,document,'script','dataLayer','GTM-XXXXXXX'); </script>

I have not yet added following attributes (according to https://cookieconsent.orestbida.com/advanced/manage-scripts.html):
type="text/plain"
data-category="analytics">

The following requests are fired:

The following cookies are set:

After accepting cookies for statistics, some further request are fired:

Only now after accepting cookies for statistics the cookies for Google Analytics are set:

Does the script blocks www.googletagmanager.com/gtm.js?i... although the category is not specified? A script without any data-category should not be blocked right?

No, the only way to disable a script is by adding an invalid javascript mime type, such as type="text/plain", before the script tag is appended to the DOM. There is probably something else going on.
