[QUOTE="ForgottenSeer 92963, post: 976550"] Indeed and I already removed it: 🤯 to many false positives. Problem with some 'most used' sources is that they also contain regular websites with a lot of visitors. The only reason why these cookies are labeled as tracking cookies is because they set an eternal life time cookie, while they don't contain any information which serves some purpose for the user (e.g. storing password or saving preferences). :mad: This is why self destructing cookies (and AG's remove third-party cookies after 48 hours) are a better solution. When the website checks whether these cookies are present, they are, but these thrid-party cookies are not stored for ever, but removed by the browser's clean up mechanisme after 48 hours (or less when you shorten the minutes to keep 3p-cookies alive in AG) [/QUOTE]
