Whoogle and Google cookie consent fix

[AdmiralAwesome]

I've found a solution to Google Cookie consent error when running Whoogle from script in LXC.

Stop Whoogle service:
systemctl stop whoogle.service

nano /usr/local/lib/python3.9/dist-packages/app/request.py
Ctrl+W, find cookies

Then replaced the complete 'cookies block' for:

        # view is suppressed correctly
        now = datetime.now()
        cookies = {
            'CONSENT': 'PENDING+987',
            'SOCS': 'CAESHAgBEhJnd3NfMjAyMzA4MTAtMF9SQzIaAmRlIAEaBgiAo_CmBg'
        }

Start Whoogle service:
systemctl start whoogle.service

Check Whoogle service status:
systemctl status whoogle.service

I've found this solution here: benbusby/whoogle-search#1053 (comment) so be sure to drop a like to original author. 👍

Is it just an indention issue?

No, the code described above for cookies is actually different.
