> Fenced Frames

Fenced frames seem to break the 3rd party cookie isolation that has become standard in web browsers.

Sure, they put protections in place... But nothing stops the forums on shadysite.com putting a fenced frame to this34yearoldmalehasanipof1234andsessionidof7775.advertiser.com

I predict that this move is worth multiple billions to Googles advertising team...



That plus "topics" makes for another great day to switch to Firefox or Safari.


So it's a backdoor for advertisers. This explained why they couldn't just extend the iframe. Should we call them adframes instead?
