Google prioritizes profits over privacy by keeping third-party cookies in Chrome. It's time for privacy legislation to put you in control of your data. eff.org/deeplinks/2024/08/goog

@eff you can still disable them though, although I believe they should be disabled by default

@louisrcouture @eff
How do you disable them? I use Firefox and duck duck go for search But I don't know if i've set up the extensions correctly to block tracking. I would like to know if there's a way to disable google tracking on my emails etc. I've tried to educate myself, but I am not in the tech field.

@hannahshouse2 @louisrcouture @eff Firefox enables Total Cookie Protection by default. It isolates cookies between sites, which is the superior approach; it's used by Tor Browser for example.

You don't need that many privacy extensions overall. Some of them might be redundant. Personally, I just use uBlock Origin when it comes to privacy extensions. When you want the most online privacy a regular person can get right now, use Tor Browser. Avoid changing settings and installing extensions in it.
