Google's New Approach
Rather than eliminating third-party cookies altogether, Google is now giving users more control. They’ll be able to make informed choices about their cookie settings and adjust them at any time. Here’s what Google had to say:
“We are proposing an updated approach that elevates user choice. Instead of deprecating third-party cookies, we would introduce a new experience in Chrome that lets people make an informed choice that applies across their web browsing, and they’d be able to adjust that choice at any time. We’re discussing this new path with regulators, and will engage with the industry as we roll this out.”
This approach offers a more gradual transition, balancing user privacy with the ongoing need for effective advertising solutions.
