Compare to what Mozilla shows their users in a pop-up tab after the update:
https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/130.0/whatsnew/
Isn’t it strange that it doesn’t mention anything from the release notes on this page?
The only thing it does mention, Close Duplicate Tabs, isn’t mentioned on the release notes.
I don’t think it’s anyone’s fault for being confused or misinterpreting what’s in the article, because even Mozilla calls it blocking:
And starting in 2024, all our users can look forward to Firefox blocking even more third party cookies.
The linked page is even more confusing, because it provides a link back to this page for clarification about which third party cookies are being blocked.
So the update is, Firefox now blocks all third party cookies by default?
That’s great and new news… I just wish this post reflected that, so I wouldn’t have to dig through comments to figure out what changed between 2022 and today.
I was confused enough when they initially announced Total Cookie Protection in 2021 and then re-announced it as rolled out to all users in 2022.
404 media deserves your money IMO. They’re former Vice Motherboard writers, so more of your money is going to journalism and not marketers
