Firefox: Mozilla successfully rethinks its browser
Authored by: b-baggins on Feb 24, '04 02:28:11PM

I use Firefox as my primary browser for one reason and one reason only: Cookie management. I'm sick and tired of every website throwing a million cookies at me from advertising sites, hitbox stat sites, demographic and browsing tracking sites, etc. Firefox lets ME decide what cookies I want on my system. Until Safari gives me that, it remains unused on my machine.

Glad I'm not the only one

Here's hoping that it's on their to-do list. I understand why they have given it low priority, given that 99% or more of people don't care about cookies (and the setting to accept only from the current domain probably takes care of at least half of the remaining 1%), but I hope they don't decide that it's too much work to benefit too few people.

In every other respect, Safari is great. Between some of the interface advantages and Camino's flakiness, I'd switch in an instant if the next version of Safari added cookie management.

CAMINO lets you decide to accept or decline cookies for every site..
