Google is finally killing tracking cookies in Chrome – here’s what that means

Google Chrome.

As part of its Privacy Sandbox project, Google has announced it will soon start winding down support for third-party cookies in its Chrome web browser. It’s a move designed to improve user privacy and stop websites from tracking you as you visit different URLs.

As explained in a recent blog post, Google will start testing a new Chrome feature called Tracking Protection on January 4, 2024. This automatically blocks tracking cookies by default, ensuring your data cannot be followed around the web.
