Mozilla Firefox is now extending Total Cookie Protection, previously only available in desktop browsers, to the platform . This feature offers protection against cross-site tracking, preventing one site from tracking your actions across different sites. Ever wondered how this works? Mozilla has the answer: they create a separate area, known as an “instance,” for each site and store cookies there. By separating cookies, it prevents sites from following you across the web.

For example, when you enter certain data on one website, the cookie information is no longer accessible by other websites. Fortunately, this protection can be synced across all your devices, as long as you sign in to your Mozilla account on each device.
Additionally, Firefox Relay now provides a simple way to hide your email address when using the browser on Android. Firefox Relay makes it easy for users to hide their real email address when signing up for a service, ensuring secure and private communication. Even with the extension’s easy installation, the company is now taking convenience to a whole new level by allowing users to access Relay directly from the contact form section.

Also unlock the power of ReadAloud, a revolutionary service that lets users listen to their content instead of reading it. Mozilla has gone above and beyond to ensure that its desktop and mobile browsers have all the useful features. While there is always room for more, for the most part they have really nailed it!

Total Cookie Protection prevents all tracking cookies from being stored on computer and prevents any further access to these cookies if they have already been stored. It does this by regularly running scans of your computer and removing any potential threats before they become a problem. This means that even if someone manages to get hold of one of these tracking cookies, they won't be able to do anything with it because the cookie will already be deleted by the time they access it.
