Google Chrome going south :(

When choosing 'Block sites from setting any data' in chrome
version 13.0.782.107, 13.0.782.109 Beta, and 14.0.835.18 Dev
all let cookies slip through.

Identical settings in version 12.0.742.122 blocks fine.

Depressing development.
I hope so soo much I don't have to switch back to firefox. :/

13.0.782.112

So I did some more testing with the new version. It seems that I can only
find a small selection of sites where cookies slip through consistently:

google.com, youtube.com and all 5 sites owned by whiskeymedia =
(animevice.com comicvine.com giantbomb.com screened.com tested.com)

If you actively block them the cookies don't slip through, exept for youtube and google. I was unable to actively block them using manage exceptions block option.

In case you are wondering I don't actively block cookies of any sites and those
sites are not offending me with their cookies. I just think 'Block sites from setting any data' should work as intended.

Am I the only one that finds this a bit odd?
