Firefox 91 will make it hard for companies like Facebook to store your cookies
India Today
Mozilla has launched a new version for the Firefox browser and it is a nightmare for Facebook.
Firefox 91 is the latest update to the popular internet browser that Mozilla has now started rolling out to everyone. This is not a big update but an important one because it brings advanced cookie protection. What this does is it digs deep into the files and database that websites have stored in the form of cookies on your system and then it segregates them according to different websites. Because of this new “total cookie protection”, websites such as Facebook will find it hard to share cookies and track users across different websites. All the cookies are not bad. Websites store information about a user to make it easy for users to access things such as username and password every time they log in. But because there is no cap on how much user information a website can store in these cookies, there is a privacy risk here. With Firefox 91, Mozilla is revamping how cookies are stored on your computer.More Related News
