  • 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.

@bradleyrichter this is still an issue and worth a moment of consideration. I'm putting it on 1.2 for now.

i think this should be done as part of #1991 (i.e., allow adding global cookie exceptions in a cookie manager)

wouldn't it be smarter to have something like https://github.com/Cookie-AutoDelete/Cookie-AutoDelete instead of blocking 3rd party cookies?
would not break so many websites
though i'd make auto-deleting first-party cookies optional
