The EU won't let Google remove 3rd party cookies lol
- ocdtrekkie 4y agoThis is false. The problem is that Google is trying to replace an open method of tracking users (third party cookies), with one which places them in the sole source of authority (FLoC, Topics, etc.). If they did what every other browser has already done, and just blocked third party cookies entirely, because it's a security issue, they would not face a legal issue. In fact, they would be able to entirely defend the move behind "we're just doing what every other browser did first". The choice to monopolize tracking instead of removing tracking is the issue at hand there.

There is a legal issue and publishers are suing and the eu is launching an anti trust investigation targeted at the removal of 3rd party cookies. https://ec.europa.eu/commission/presscorner/detail/en/IP_21_3143 https://ec.europa.eu/commission/presscorner/detail/en/IP_21_...
