Hahahahaha so it doesn't break anything that still relies on cookies, but neuters the ability to share them.

That's awesome

Honestly, I thought that's how it already worked.

Edit: I think what I'm remembering is that you can define the cookies by site/domain, and restrict to just those. And normally would, for security reasons.

But some asshole sites like Facebook are cookies that are world-readable for tracking, and this breaks that.

Someone correct me if I got it wrong.

They've been doing this with container tabs, so this must be the successor to that idea (I'm going to assume they'll still have container tabs).

Container tabs are still useful, as they let you use multiple Cookie jars for the same site. So, it is very easy to have multiple accounts on s site.
