Why forcing the browsers? Couldn't they just make a law for ISPs to block specific domains?

I'm not a vegetarian, but I consume very low amount of mean compared to the average (I'd say I consume no more than I need), and I totally agree that there should be no difference between cows and horses, as both are very intelligent and can get attached to humans or other species. Same goes for many other mammals, and not limited to.

OK, but what happens to Sammy the snail?

Why does it collect User/Device ID, messages, payment history and other data? Is there a detailed privacy policy anywhere?

And that's evolution, fellas! Will the Panther become a separate species? We'll find out in a million years.

Redeem all free games from Epic. Never install their launcher. You get a free library to use with Geforce Now.

Thanks! That will do for now

I clicked the X on the cross-site cookies, and they do not appear anymore after restarting the browser. That's annoying though, ans I'm still wondering if those cookies are actually blocked because of total cookie protection.

EDIT: oh well, I think I found the reason: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/third-party-trackers?as=u&utm_source=inproduct#w_managing-cross-site-cookies Imho this should be disabled in strict mode. EDIT2: nvm, I found a relevant issue in arkenfox's github and updated the post.

 

I set up Firefox for deleting cookies when the session is closed, as recommended by privacyguides and arkenfox. I add sites for which I want to keep the login to the exceptions. I noticed that, by doing so, I also allow the site for using cross-site cookies (see screenshot: https://imgur.com/a/mkQptyc). However, I would like to keep blocking cross-site cookies, I just need the site's cookies to keep the login. Am I doing something wrong? I'm afraid that I'm bypassing total cookie protection.

EDIT: apparently it's a known issue (https://github.com/arkenfox/user.js/issues/1448 the "needs jesus" label is not reassuring) causing sanitizing exceptions to also allow third parties.

I pay for Amazon Prime, but still get less buffer time by streaming torrents with Stremio, which also never fails to remember where I left a movie at (even if I change the torrent source, which is crazy)
