Safari will block all third-party cookies by default

Safari

Safari is the most widely used browser among owners of iOS and macOS devices, and it is more than proven that Safari, the native web browser of iOS and macOS, performs notably better than the competition, especially considering the quantity of resources consumed by Chrome and Firefox on Apple devices that makes them counterproductive to use, especially in terms of autonomy if you browse continuously. In the meantime, Apple continues to work on improving Safari, now it will allow by default to block all third-party cookies to avoid tracking our private information.

While Brave and Firefox already block all third-party cookies by default and Chrome has promised to do so soon (they estimate that the blocking will arrive in 2022), Safari joins this privacy policy by the big door, and it is that pBy default, it will reject all third-party cookies, that is, those providers that are not collaborators of the Cupertino company will see the cookies rejected. I sincerely believe that if this works and we do not have to "accept cookies" on each website that we enter, I will greatly appreciate it, because between you and me ... I do not read the text that they put me and I accept it just to stop seeing the notice .

The long wait is over, the latest "Smart Tracking Prevention" update included in Safari is now available. Safari users, welcome to the future and to a safer web. 

Notably this possibility of blocking all cookies was already a function integrated long ago in Safari on both iOS and macOS, despite the fact that for this you had to enter "Settings" and most traditional Safari users were unaware of this ability. Once again Apple takes decisive measures for the privacy of its users.
