This feature, which initially launched in 2021 to enhance the security of Private Browsing mode, limits the third-party cookies\u2019 ability to track you throughout the web.<\/p>\n<p>A cookie is a small file that <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/119458\/htg-explains-whats-a-browser-cookie\/\">lets a site identify you<\/a> and \u201cremember\u201d your activities. They\u2019re useful to the end-user and provide important information to a website\u2019s owner. If you delete all browser cookies, for example, you will log out of all websites (and reset preferences on websites that don\u2019t rely on user accounts).<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, cookies are basically just trackers. And if a company like <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/social-mediaa\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"1\" title=\"Social Media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Facebook<\/a> decides to stick its cookies on other peoples\u2019 websites, it can quickly build an advertising profile based on your web history, interests, accounts, and location. Unless you love creepy targeted ads, third-party cookies aren\u2019t useful to you and are arguably a violation of your privacy.<\/p>\n<p>Firefox\u2019s Total Cookie Protection doesn\u2019t kill cookies; it simply reduces third-party cookies\u2019 ability to track your activity or phone home to their owners. Mozilla calls this a \u201ccookie jar\u201d system\u2014each website has its own \u201cjar\u201d where cookies operate correctly, but one site can\u2019t stick its hands in another site\u2019s \u201ccookie jar.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>This <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>roach strikes the balance between eliminating the worst privacy properties of third-party cookies \u2014 in particular the ability to track you \u2014 and allowing those cookies to fulfill their less invasive use cases (e.g. to provide accurate analytics). With Total Cookie Protection in Firefox, people can enjoy better privacy and have the great browsing experience they\u2019ve come to expect.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Other browsers, particularly Microsoft Edge, offer similar cookie protection. Though as we learned in the recent DuckDuckGo scandal, you probably shouldn\u2019t take a company\u2019s privacy claims at face value. Tools like Total Cookie Protection are incredible, but they shouldn\u2019t be your last line of defense if you\u2019re deeply concerned about privacy. (For what it\u2019s worth, Mozilla has a solid track record for user privacy and <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/support.mozilla.org\/en-US\/kb\/introducing-total-cookie-protection-standard-mode\">doesn\u2019t oversell<\/a> Total Cookie Protection\u2019s capabilities.)<\/p>\n<p>I should mention that Total Cookie Protection is also available in Firefox Focus (<a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/apps.apple.com\/us\/app\/firefox-focus-privacy-browser\/id1055677337\">iOS<\/a>\/<a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/play.google.com\/store\/apps\/details?id=org.mozilla.focus&amp;hl=en_US&amp;gl=US\">Android<\/a>), a privacy-minded mobile browser that blocks trackers and doesn\u2019t save any web history or logins.<\/p>\n<p><small>Source: <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/blog.mozilla.org\/en\/products\/firefox\/firefox-rolls-out-total-cookie-protection-by-default-to-all-users-worldwide\/\">Mozilla<\/a>\u00a0<\/small>\n<\/div>\n<p><script>\nsetTimeout(function(){\n  !function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s)\n  {if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod?\n  n.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)};\n  if(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;n.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0';\n  n.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0;\n  t.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];\n  s.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s)}(window, document,'script',\n  'https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\n  fbq('init', '1137093656460433');\n  fbq('track', 'PageView');\n  },3000);\n<\/script><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
