It also helps Google form more of a monopoly on your info, since it keeps companies like Facebook from forming as accurate of a profile on you.
It’s weird that we’ve arrived at “Don’t let Google have a monopoly on personally identifying you for advertising purposes!”
It’s something they wanted all along, but it’s quite the PR stunt to further monopolize their control of the internet by removing all third party cookies, killing competition in the process, in order to implement their own custom solution in Chrome and Android (netting them the biggest browser share and mobile device share respectively). All while calling it private, too.
