Deleting cookies doesn't stop advertisers from tracking you. cookies were the dominant tracking method until browsers started blocking them. advertisers adapted. the current toolkit: — browser fingerprinting: 300+ attributes identify your browser uniquely. no cookie needed. — supercookies: tracking data stored in ETags, LocalStorage, IndexedDB, and browser cache. survive cookie deletion. — CNAME cloaking: third-party trackers disguised as first-party domains to bypass blockers. — login-based tracking: if you're logged into Google or Facebook, your identity follows you across every site with their embedded scripts. no cookie required. — device fingerprinting: your IP, OS, screen resolution, and hardware combine into a persistent identifier. what actually reduces tracking 1. Browser choice matters most. Firefox with uBlock Origin blocks more than Chrome with any extension. Brave has built-in fingerprint randomization. Some privacy folks advise avoiding Chromium-based browsers entirely. 2. uBlock Origin in medium mode. blocks third-party scripts by default. most effective single extension for tracking prevention. 3. Firefox's Total Cookie Protection. isolates cookies per site so they can't be used to track you across sites. Enabled by default since Firefox 103. 4. Don't stay logged into Google or Facebook in your main browser. use a separate profile or browser for those accounts. 5. For serious privacy: Mullvad Browser. pre-configured Firefox forks with fingerprint resistance built in.
