You don't answer my question, then use a vague term of 'technically work' to ensure I can't give you useful info tl;dr you don't want to be helped.

I'm sorry that the correct answer to your question is vague. Such is the nature of the Internet. Not my choice, not my fault.
If you don't specify I can't help. If marketing = 3rd party then you can block these using the hosts file at the domain level, which I do. This blocks >95% of crap cookies. A clear question gets a clear answer.
Marketing cookies can be same-site or third-party.

The only entity that can specify whether a cookie is marketing-related or not is the website. No one else can.

You're right of course but 3rd party seem to be the great majority, so blocking them is a big easy win. Also, only 3rd party cookies can track between domains/sites, so that stops that, or so I believe.
