selfdestructing cookies is not just a cookie manager, it's a new cookie policy. do you think that cookies should need a reason to persist in your cookie jar, i.e. you currently interacting with the site that set them? would you prefer your cookie jar to be empty in its steady state, except for a few sites that you care about? are you worried about unconventional tracking methods? then give this addon a try.
selfdestructing cookies automatically removes cookies when they are no longer used by open browser tabs. with the cookies, lingering sessions, as well as information used to spy on you, will be expunged. websites will only be permitted to identify you while you actually use them and can not stalk you across the entire web. this is the closest you will get to cookieless browsing without breaking every second site or tedious micromanaging.
