Summary
Is Google finally giving up on its efforts to replace third-party cookies with more privacy-preserving ad targeting? While the company has delayed plans to introduce a new cookie dialog in Chrome, users can still opt out of third-party cookies manually. However, after years of experimenting under the Privacy Sandbox initiative, Google appears to be ending this project and may permanently maintain its current approach to ad tracking.
