Shopify Cookie Banner - Consent Mode Defaults all to "Unknown" when it should by "Denied"

You can see this in this example (before the Cookie Banner has been interacted with):

... but the Default State should be "denied"

After pressing "Accept" it is correct:

Hi @willryanuk  

This is Mike from Consentik

Google recommends to use Tag Assistant or Console on devTool to test Consent mode. 

You can follow steps to test from this document

You also can try my app Consentik GDPR Cookie Banner. My app is fully compatible with Google Consent Mode V2
