I remember coming across the 3rd party cookie restrictions on Safari. I was setting a cookie inside of an iframe for its own domain since it was for internal state tracking for a check-in style button, not trying to set on the iframe's parent page or anything like that. Imagine my surprise when I discovered Safari even blocks 3rd party domains from setting cookies in iframes for their own domains.

For a moment at first, I was kind of frustrated. Then I thought about it and really, really was happy Safari was doing that. It might be causing me a little headache, but its also stopping lots of ad trackers right in their tracks.

This is something I wish all browsers would start doing.
