Carried over from brave/browser-laptop#1268

  • A recent user request to make platform.twitter.com unblocked so that they can view embedded tweets on a blog page made clear the need for a Global Exception List
  • in EFF Privacy Badger which Blocks Third Party Cookies and Tracking, One Can Setup a Global Whitelist if so inclined:
EFF Privacy Badger Screenshot - You can allow Third Party Cookies in Bravery -> Clicking 'Allow ads and Tracking' - The Problem being that it is a binary, globally on or globally off. A user cannot just allow a specific site through (like platform.twitter.com for embedded tweets) on all of their sites.

per-domain whitelist would also be nice :)

Do you have any updates on this? This one is especially needed in case of some extensions to work such as are.na's (https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/arena/lkihjlcipnbgeokmfnpogjfflofbfhga).

Every time I want to use this extension, I have to turn my shield down for that site and then turn it back up. I tried adding their domain to cookie allow list but seems like it doesn't work because of how shields work.

This is particularly important if I want to use this for a work browser. Being able to choose certain sites to allow so I don't have to turn down all shields to get my resources to work.
