@planet this is fixed in v6.7.3

There are some small differences.
The version from my store will give you exactly 2 more options during setup for enhanced removal of Safari History and Cache.

With a little extra effort, you can make the App Store version function just like the trial version.

1. First of all, you will need to download and manually install:
   https://sweetpproductions.com/products/cookieapp/scripts/Safari_Script.dmg
   you can find the link with more info about how to install the script here:
   https://sweetpproductions.com/products/cookieapp/scripts/en.htm
   Basically you need this script if you want to fully remove Safari search history.

2. Run the following command in Applications/Utilities/Terminal.app to enable a deeper clearing of Safari's cache:
   defaults write com.sweetpproductions.CookieApp removePrivateVarFolder -bool true
   To run the command, you only need to open Terminal.app, copy and paste the above command, then press ENTER.

Ive posted a user guide, with some troubleshooting tips here:

@EarthLaunch that is normal. System Preferences shows the Hardware Address. But ifconfig shows the current address which your device is identified as.

I already know of all those links, except the one on the Apple Dev forums.

One of the replies there does not look great for the future of spoofing on macOS, which ironically goes against Apple's very public image of pro Privacy....

Alright everyone.
 
My ticket has been closed and I pinged a bunch of friends I have that work at Apple HQ.
 
Final result. This is not a bug. Apple is removing this feature for security reasons.
This makes no sense since doing this does not put the individual doing it at a security risk.
But I don't. Im so done with the platform. You can't just remove ifconfig functionality.
Thats not how any of this works.

it looks as though support will be added for this in a future Safari release. Safari Technology Preview 85 returns all the tab titles on relaunch.

v6.0.16.1 should fix this problem:

@robert_olding try disabling the timer in Cookie

That is the correct behaviour. The Address in System Preferences shows you the Hardware Mac Address. This is the default address and can not be changed without physically replacing the wireless card in your Mac. Your MAC address will always reset to this on a computer restart.

WifiSpoof changes the software MAC address. This is what your computer broadcasts to other devices.

Well it’s quite a bit more work than just updating a few strings...

I’ll mYbe look into it over the weekend

@afterdusk the only data transmitted is the version number during update checks. This can be disabled in the version from my store by unchecking Check for updates on the Updates tab in Preferences.

The App Store version is the same, however update checking is handled by macOS, so there is no way to disable the checks.

@SolarBeamster cookie 5 hasn’t been tested on Monterey. I actually stopped releasing updates for it in 2019

@MarkSealey Thanks Mark

@coupeman you may need to whitelist some tracking cookies. Try this:

• disable the timer in Cookie, if you are using it
• login to any sites you have trouble with
• expand the domain in Cookies window to reveal all cookies
• go through and whitelist any RED coloured tracking cookies (you may not need to whitelist all of them)

you whitelist a cookie by right clicking on it to reveal the contextual menu and selecting add to whitelist

This is an issue with iCloud. You can disable iCloud syncing and delete the folder. I’ll investigate whats going on

@oogje there’s no such feature in Cookie…

@AdamfromChi do you have a large number of saved sessions. Perhaps autosave sessions?
