With more employees working from home than ever before, the internet continues to play a much larger role in our daily lives which is why Mozilla is bringing new multi-tasking and privacy protection features to Firefox.To help prevent users from being tracked on the web, the company has announced Total Cookie Protection for Firefox. This feature stops cookies from tracking users across the web by creating a separate cookie jar for each website.Total Cookie Protection is the latest tool in Mozilla's suite of privacy protections called Enhanced Tracking Protection. By combining this new feature with Firefox's recently announced supercookie protections, the browser now offers comprehensive protection against cookie tracking on desktop and on mobile for smartphones running Android.We've built a list of the best browsers for mobile and desktopThese are the best proxy service providers on the marketAlso check out our roundup of the best endpoint protectionSVP of Firefox, Selena Deckelmann provided further insight on how Mozilla has been working to prevent cookies from tracking its users in a blog post, saying:Firefox's recently announced supercookie protections, the browser now offers comprehensive protection against cookie tracking on desktop and on mobile for smartphones running Android.We've built a list of the best browsers for mobile and desktopThese are the best proxy service providers on the marketAlso check out our roundup of the best endpoint protectionSVP of Firefox, Selena Deckelmann provided further insight on how Mozilla has been working to prevent cookies from tracking its users in a blog post, saying:RECOMMENDED VIDEOS FOR YOU...Xiaomi Mi 11 | Everything you need to know23/02/21Xiaomi Mi 11 | Everything you need to knowGalaxy S21 | Everything you need to knowvideo playingGalaxy S21 Ultra | Everything you need to...26/01/21Galaxy S21 Ultra | Everything you need to knowIPhone 12 Pro | Everything you need to...24/12/20IPhone 12 Pro | Everything you need to know in 1 minuteAirPods Max | Everything you need to know in 1...24/12/20AirPods Max | Everything you need to know in 1 minutePS5 | Everything you need to know in 1...14/12/20PS5 | Everything you need to know in 1 minute"In our ongoing commitment to bring the best innovations in privacy, we are working tirelessly to improve how Firefox protects our users from tracking. In 2019, Firefox introduced Enhanced Tracking Protection (ETP) which blocks cookies from known, identified trackers, based on the Disconnect list. To bring even more comprehensive protection, Total Cookie Protection confines all cookies from each website in a separate cookie jar so that cookies can no longer be used to track you across the web as you browse from site to site."Multiple Picture-in-PictureLast year Mozilla released a Picture-in-Picture feature for its browser which received high praise from Firefox users and even managed to top the company's Best of Firefox 2020 features list. However, some users wanted more than just one picture-in-picture view.For this reason, Mozilla has added multiple picture-in-picture views to its desktop browsers for Mac, Linux and Windows with keyboard controls for fast forward and rewind.This new feature could certainly help those who work with a lot of videos multi-task but it's also launching ahead of one of the biggest sporting events of the year, March Madness.
