Mozilla Patches Bugs in Firefox, Now Blocks Cross-Site Cookie Tracking

Mozilla has released its latest version of the Firefox browser, which comes with new privacy protections to squash cross-site cookie tracking, as well as a slew of security vulnerability fixes. Firefox 86, released on Tuesday, includes what it touts as a privacy-bolstering feature called Total Cookie Protection. This new feature isolates each cookie assigned by each website preventing websites from tracking internet users in an invasive manner. Mozilla has been on a war path against tracking cookies since 2018, when it announced a campaign blocking tracking cookies by default in Firefox and implementing various other privacy measures.
