The link within that piece "not everybody agrees" might also be worth following.

I looked and couldn’t find the link and gave up ☹️ Under the cookie monster cartoon, just underlined words |

I was deliberately not explicit because I wanted to nudge people to read the whole piece.  |

I wonder if this is about Androids's Private Compute Service (or an equivalent for Windows). Said app gets described in terms of being a sandbox in on line articles which are obviously Google propaganda. I have always resisted updating said app because I am suspicious it is simply Google spyware.
I shall continue to use Firefox.

Likewise, I have been trying to minimise my contact with Google and its products for some years, not helped by friends who insist on using Google drive to share documents. |

I am using Brave Browser with Brave Search. I believe that is the most private combination at the moment.

I've just checked this on my Chrome settings, and all three of the items in the 'Ads privacy' section are currently OFF and so inactive. I don't know if this is the default, or the result if other privacy settings already in place before the recent new version of Chrome. The pop-up ad blocker was, of course already set ON, as was the blocking of all third party cookies (some sites attempt to use a lot of these).
Perhaps this new feature is aimed at users who have never looked at the existing security and privacy options.
Interestingly, the website on the link attempted to use a cookie from 'platform.twitter.com'.
