❗️Sanitizing in-session is a false sense of privacy. They do nothing for IP tracking. Even Tor Browser does not sanitize in-session e.g. when you request a new circuit. A new ID requires both full sanitizing and a new IP. The same applies to Firefox
❗️Cookie extensions can lack APIs or implementation of them to properly sanitize: e.g.
⚠️ [last checked Nov 2024], Cookie Auto Delete even instructs it’s users to disable Total Cookie Protection - ⚠️ DO NOT DO THIS ⚠️
As of Firefox 86, strict mode is not supported at this time due to missing APIs to handle the Total Cookie Protection [… followed by instructions]
I don’t get it. Of course it doesn’t help with IP tracking of fingerprinting, but it deletes all cookies when I leave a site.
My browsers runs very long on desktop and mobile, so Firefox’s ‘Delete cookies on close’ doesn’t help much.
Don’t do that.

yeah, we know deleting cookies doesn’t prevent IP tracking, that’s also why I use a VPN
