I find it hard to believe Google will let go of their golden goose. It's too risky for them.

They just recently announced that they won’t phase out third party cookies next year - delayed until further notice or next golden goose.

There's a link in the article where Google says they are not phasing out third party cookies at all - https://privacysandbox.com/news/privacy-sandbox-update/.

They are already gone on Firefox. I had to reengineer one system to make it work. So if you’re care about compatibility, third party cookies are already effectively gone.

They aren't letting go of their golden goose. They are just killing off the competition.

Isn't it the opposite? Most of Google's competitors in the ad space are very dependent on third party cookies but Google itself can get browsing information from Chrome directly.

AFAIK this is why the UK's competition authorities were hostile to Google removing third party cookies.
