I want to know the cookies a web page uses and whether they use cookies placed on the computer by other websites.

Is there a way of knowing this or even an addon for it?

    I’m not sure I understood your request correctly. You can analyze the cookies used by a website by pressing F12 and going to the Storage section, or you can use tools like Burpsuite to intercept requests and analyze cookies. That said, you’ll have to decode the cookies most of the time.

    People, answer the question!!

    There are extensions for that. But one universal way to do this is by opening the developer tools, either by hitting the F12 key like another commenter briefly mentioned, or thorough the application menu.

    Then once the developer tools panel pops up, go to the Storage tab, select Cookies, and there you are. You’ll see a list of cookies grouped by the domain names they come from.
