  • Must have if you are concerned Googles take on privacy

    Thanks Roy for making the internet a little bit better.

  • works like magic!

    I'm installing this plugin over a bunch of sites on many different hosting providers. So far has worked flawlessly.

  • do it without a plugin

    If you do not want to use a plugin, just add the following lines to your function.php function disable_floc($headers) { $headers['Permissions-Policy'] = 'interest-cohort=()'; return $headers; } add_filter('wp_headers', 'disable_floc');

  • Works great, thanks!

    After reading about Federated Learning of Cohorts (FLoC), I knew I wanted my site pages excluded from FLoC analysis. Thanks for making this so easy to implement. Added your plugin to my site this morning, confirmed the setting, and it's good to go.

  • Thank you

    While I hope to see this in WordPress core soon, this is a great alternative.
