Google and Facebook bypassing Safari security


Google, Facebook and other advertising networks have been caught using a workaround to circumvent security settings on Apple's Safari and Safari Mobile browsers.

The workaround enables them to deposit cookies on a user's computer, regardless of whether the browser is set to prevent it.

By default, Safari is set to only accept cookies from directly visited sites, blocking cookies from all others.
