Exactly. I don't see why they should be allowed in the first place. I also block first-party cookies and while that does break more sites, it's still pretty manageable.
- chance_state 7y ago>I also block first-party cookies This is the front loaded approach which can cause breakage. I prefer the back loaded approach of using an extension like Cookie Auto Delete or similar that deletes cookies once you're away from a domain for a set amount of time (I think mine is set to 2 minutes).
- recursive 7y agoDo you use any sites which require any kind of authentication?
- distances 7y agoBy "manageable" I mean I'll allow them for the sites that need them. So yes, I do use sites with login.
- bradly 7y agoFirefox users can turn on privacy.firstparty.isolate which I believe will scope third party cookies to the top level domain you are on. It is off by default, but I've been using it for sometime without issue (except very persistent re-captcha).
- JeremyNT 7y agoThis is one approach, but you can avoid breakage by accepting cookies initially while enabling "clear cookies on exit." Combined with Firefox containers this works pretty well.
- distances 7y agoIndeed, this is what I use on Firefox Android as uMatrix would be way too cumbersome. Still have to remember to exit through the menu though, just killing the app won't do it.
