User stories

• We would like to enable Enhanced Tracking Protection (“ETP”) tracking cookie restrictions in Fennec 68. ETP is a marketing term that includes multiple privacy features, including tracking cookie restrictions and a new Storage Access API. But in Fennec, we will only enable the tracking cookie restrictions. ETP is shipping to some Firefox 68 desktop users and later in Fenix. Since Fennec 68 will be maintained in ESR until mid-2020, we would like to use the same Tracking Protection code and have consistent messaging for all our browsers.
• ETP blocks third-party tracking cookies, but not tracker code. Regular TP blocks both third-party tracking cookies and tracker code, but is more likely to break websites that rely on third-party code than ETP is. ETP also has heuristics to avoid blocking third-party cookies that are needed for functionality like Facebook Login and Comments.
