first party cookies yes

But third party cookies are a lot more insidious, because they get sent without any visibility to the user and have generally peripheral relevance to the application they are using. It's like if you go to the supermarket and they ask you if you want to sign up for a loyalty card and you say yes, vs you go to the supermarket and they secretly plant trackers on you so that when you go to other shops they can tell who you are. One is a lot worse than the other.
