Is there a Chrome(ium) alternative for the Firefox "Self-Destructing Cookies" extension? [closed]

Solution 1:

Tab Cookies looks like it would fit the bill.

From the description:

This extensions deletes all the cookies created in a tab (which are not used by other tabs) when you close the tab. In this way your privacy is guaranteed.

For example, as long as you stay on gMail, you are logged in, but once you close that tab (and all the others which are or have been on a Google site) the tracking cookies of Google disappear. Same for Facebook, once you close all the tabs which opened Facebook, its cookies disappear, so other sites cannot track you around the web.

Solution 2:

The closest I can think of is the native behavior in Chrome, which can delete cookies as soon as you close the browser.

  1. Go to chrome://settings (or open the Settings from the menu).

  2. Open the advanced settings, by clicking Show advanced settings...
