The article discusses the implications of a recent Google Chrome policy update concerning third-party cookies and user privacy. Despite the anticipated demise of third-party cookies, Google’s move towards a masked domain list indicates that tracking will persist, particularly for consent prompts. The proposal aims to guard user information, particularly IP addresses, in incognito mode, while ensuring normal server operations can continue for fraud detection. This dual approach reflects the challenge of balancing advertising needs with growing privacy concerns.
The proposed changes will restrict third-party access to users' IP addresses in incognito mode, impacting how companies track users across the web.
