  • Google has announced it will begin testing a new “Tracking Protection” feature.
  • Tracking Protection will be enabled by default and limit cross-site tracking from third-party cookies.
  • The feature will roll out globally to 1% of Chrome users on January 4.

A few months ago, Google detailed how it wanted to get rid of third-party cookies in the Chrome browser in 2024. The company will soon start to follow through on that mission by testing a new privacy feature for Chrome.

Google has announced it will begin its Privacy Sandbox initiative to phase out third-party cookies by testing a feature called “Tracking Protection.” The new feature reportedly restricts websites from accessing third-party cookies that track your actions across the internet.
