Third party cookies shouldn't exist in the first place.

  I partly agree with you: they should be an earned privilege that I agree to turn on for some websites, not something turned on by default. because there are some genuine use cases, such as single sign-on, that they're actually useful for.

    Eh, single-sign-on is easily fixed for most applications; just forward the entire window to the SSO provider, so the cookies are first-party, then forward back once they're logged in.

      I wish it was that simple. If you can bounce through an SSO provider to set a first-party cookie, you can bounce through an ad tracker. Even with a heuristic that requires action on the interstitial, how do you distinguish between redirects to services like Google that support social login and ad tracking? Separating SSO and ad tracking is nontrivial and may result in collateral damage.

  Third party scripts shouldn't exist either.
