Why are third party cookies allowed at all?
1 comments

I've had them disabled for years, and everything works fine.
So have I, but for some reason my browser cache is cluttered with 3rd party content I never asked for. The feature is evidently broken.
Turning-off third party cookies doesn’t prevent third-party images, CSS, JS, or fonts from being loaded. Your browser just doesn’t save or send cookies while doing so.

These third-party things should be in your cache.
