Hi everyone.
Does the 'Block All Cookies' option in Safari desktop block all but necessary cookies from all websites, or does it block everything including the necessary cookies?
Thanks.
It blocks everything including necessary ones. By law each individual website that uses cookies must inform the user of such and offer tools to manage what cookies are accepted and which are not. No browser that I know of has the feature you seem to want because each website is different in their coding.
Hi, thanks for your reply.
Brave browser does exactly that. It's one of the most useful features I've ever seen in a browser. I was hoping it could be done in Safari, but from what you say, it's not possible.
It's beyond annoying to have to refuse cookies for every single website we visit, session after session, day after day. I really wish Apple would do something about it.
" I really wish Apple would do something about it."
Wishing accomplishes nothing, zero, nada. Submit feedback to Apple using the proper channel. I also think you’re just a Brave plant trying to promote a third party app as I know Brave does not have the feature you claim it does. You can choose the block all cookies or allow all cookies, that's it, just like Safari.
Brave blocks third-party cookies by default. It prevents websites from setting or reading cookies from other domains or websites, except for first-party cookies, which are set by the website you are currently visiting, so not the same as safari at all.
I’ve given feedback to apple about this on more than one occasion, which is why I said I wish they’d do something about it.
A Brave plant 😂 I’m just a regular user wishing Apple would make its own browser as fast, smooth and functional as the competition.
How to automatically block all but necessary cookies, Safari desktop?
