#Google has decided that stopping 3rd party cookies in Chrome to protect privacy is not a good idea after all, based on non-specified "divergent" opinions which can only be interpreted as pressure from advertisers.

And no, a private window does nothing to protect your #privacy, nor does a VPN. The only solution is to move to a browser that doesn't allow tracking.
