Like BRAVE and Firefox? (Surely BRAVE should be the first, always saying that it's about privacy?). Is there any way to get word through to them?? This has nothing to do with JavaScript. And of course Google does *not* remove cookies! It is about "third party" cookies sent when visiting websites which includes elements by third party websites.
