What is Cookie AutoDelete?

Cookie AutoDelete is a user-friendly Chrome extension dedicated to providing users greater control over their online data. The tool automatically deletes unwanted site data including cookies, indexedDB, localstorage, etc. from closed tabs. It features Whitelist and Greylist support, where users can specify the sites whose data they wish to preserve permanently (WhiteList) or until the browser is restarted (GreyList). It also supports manual cleaning and allows easy export or import of Whitelist/Greylist configurations. Note that it doesn't clean data automatically until the 'Auto-clean' setting is enabled.

La preferisco rispetto ad altre, spero però che sistemate queste " best practice" di chrome perché altrimenti smetterà di funzionare.

I had this in Chrome and noticed a few cookies that were on multiple websites.... and knew that I had it installed but then noticed it was missing. Did Google remove it with a Chrome update? As soon as I reinstalled, it deleted 1,536 cookies...... If Google removes this again, I'm switching to Chrome or Edge.
