Issue 2413: Add option to white-list domains that are allowed to get/set cookies http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=2413
Comment #5 by myst3r0ns: In both Firefox and IE, users can block third party cookies entirely, while allowing first party AND have a block list for certain first party cookies. First party cookies need a block list for emerging Deep packet inspection technologies whereby the ISP will persevere in trying to get every user to opt in by prior examination of any first party cookies held, if the user is able to block (for instance in the case of British Telecom testing Phorm equipment) webwise.net cookies, the users will not be intercepted to opt in or out, and henceforth not have to ensure a cookie is held for every user on every computer in their household. I will not personally use chrome as default browser until it has similar cookie management to firefox, in the US this may not be such an issue now, in the UK Phorm has not been ousted as was Nebuad, yet, but these companies are also moving to less technologically developed countries and countries with less privacy/security awareness. For anyone who does not believe this will happen with first party cookies, its happening now. Anyone opting in (it does not have to be the household account holder, any child could be presented with the option) opts in for the household AND changes the account holders broadband terms and conditions to allow the account to be profiled/targetted by dpi equipment. In summary, I would like to see Allow first party cookies with a block list, and no third party cookies. -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.
