I wonder why Microsoft doesn't make Edge a privacy-oriented browser. I'm surprised they think they can make more from the data economy than they would gain by seriously hurting Google et al.
There's too much money to be made foisting payday loans on the dwindling userbase. https://www.howtogeek.com/769427/microsoft-edge-wants-to-giv...

Reminds me of what Google Chrome (and others browsers) did for cache. That's clever, not 100% sure this will prevent tracking, but at least it makes tracker's life a bit harder.
Cool. Just a heads' up that I had to disable it on Zendesk and Asana so they could talk to each other - you might experience similar issues.

Just to clarify, Total Cookie Protection in Firefox is not the same as blocking third-party cookies. Firefox will accept third-party cookies and send them back, but only on this particular site. So third parties (read ad networks) will be able to track you on any site, but not across sites (without some other means of tracking).
