Does this stop me from adding to my website an iframe to facebook where facebook can keep its cookies for my user? That would be great but I doubt it.

IIRC an iframe contents is treated as a separate window, so cookies aren’t shared either
That’s horrific WHY?
do not add any event listeners for
messageevents. This is a completely foolproof way to avoid security problems. 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡

I haven't worked with HTML since 1999; I hate that I'm just now finding out that iframes are somehow still a thing in the modern world. What the actual fuck. Why? Don't we have some fancy HTML5 or Ajax or something that can replace them?
Yeah i don't know why, probably exactly because is such a neglected feature that it offers workarounds for some limitations, like in the case of cookie-related patterns.

Maybe they should try to develop the uBlock Origin extension with the dev to make it last more.
They call it TCP. All we need now is IP, and we'll be set lol
Nah math is bad for internet.
Does making it the default also set it on my already-downloaded Firefox or only to new downloads? Just to know if I'll have to manually set it.
It very probably wont change your settings for you. That would be super annoying if it changed things you set on purpose.
