Mechanisms such as Storage Access API, allow individual frames to gain access to third-party cookies even when the global browser settings indicate that third-party cookies should be blocked. Since the existing privacy.websites.thirdPartyCookiesAllowed() API only provides insight into browser level settings, the return from the API can be misleading about the state of an individual frame.
