Browser Privacy - Cookies - Custom

Post by JackPollack »

Under Browser Privacy - Custom - Cookies:
There is a drop down list of 5 cookie choices.

Are they listed in order of restrictiveness (so item 3 does all of item 2 + more)?

There's a 6th option - you can uncheck Cookies (altogether) ;-).

In order of restrictiveness? I'm thinking not (particularly).

Default, tracking cookies & isolate, would be more restrictive then the 1st. item, tracking cookies.
Unvisited is a different kind of animal.
3rd-party too.

That said, which one should I choose?
Well, of course, the one that works ;-).
(Of which there won't be any golden rule when you deal with blocking methods.)
