It’s actually irritating to should separately delete lots of of cookies/caches from web sites I’ve by no means visited. (Would that Apple would enable us to dam third-party cookies).
Is there an API that might enable me to construct my very own app in Xcode to deal with it in a greater means? Or one thing like Cookie 6 (macOS) for iOS? Or another person’s open supply that I can compile?
I’m not prepared to jailbreak, nor to put in one thing with supply code not vetted by me or Apple.
For instance, clearing all web site information after which logging in to Fb.com provides 5 third-party cookies. Three of them are from domains owned by Fb, however don’t finish in Fb.com. The opposite two are clearly from promoting providers.
For this reason I exploit DuckDuckGo for nearly every thing, and Safari solely often. DuckDuckGo lets me clear every thing after a session. I exploit Safari for a number of domains the place I’d wish to hold their cookies solely, however the price of that’s consumption of cupboard space that doesn’t profit me and prevents syncing all of the music I’d like.
The cookies are much less irritating than the consumption of restricted cupboard space. But when third-party cookies are accepted, cross-site monitoring is implied. Since I cleared all web site information (lately), I’ve not visited any web site with “math” within the identify. Solely Fb, UniGen.us, and three SE subdomains. But I’ve a cookie from mathoverflow.com And Safari says it’s measurement is zero bytes. Clearly, it’s at the very least one byte. However extra of a difficulty are the megabytes of third-party native storage leading to updates and Music syncs failing for inadequate house.
