1728133 - Revert partitioning skiplist intervention for Kinja

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: Privacy: Anti-Tracking, task, P3)

Description

[Paul Zühlcke [:pbz]]

Breakage bug for which this skiplist entry is being added (also add in "Depends on"): Bug 1656171.

Tracking protection feature(s) to be skiplisted: partitioning-exempt-urls

Pattern to be skiplisted: https://jalopnik.com,https://kinja.com;https://kotaku.com,https://kinja.com

Timeline of intervention (See our timeline policy): 3 months

Planned steps to resolve intervention (e.g., outreach, technical fixes, policy fixes): We are planning to ship an anti-tracking shim through our webcompat addon that will not require skiplisting. Once that reaches all platforms (desktop and mobile) we will remove this intervention.
We have reached out to the vendor to notify them of the breakage, for them to address the issue, e.g. via calling the Storage Access API.

Paul, can you verify the fix from bug 1656171 and remove this entry? :)

Thanks!

We should wait for the shim to reach beta and release before we remove the skip-list entries. Keeping the NI for that.

As discussed with the team, I've reverted the skip list entries listed above for Nightly and Beta. We will revert the entries for Release once the shim from Bug 1656171 has been released.
In Beta you may see the breakage from Bug 1656171 until 95 merges into Beta on November 1st.
