Or better yet set it so you have to ok any third party cookies. You will spend all your time hitting ok. All those third party cookies are paying Slashkey for the access to our information.

I always have my third party cookies blocked and I can play the game just fine. The only third party content that has to be turned on is for the flash player. And no company pays slashkey for any information gotten from cookies.
Facebook owns and gets all the revenue from the ads on the right side of the game. Slashkey removed their ads because the company they were dealing with kept inserting ads with pop-ups that kept messing up the game, so they had to drop them.
Facebook may pay them a small amount for those ads on the right but I doubt it is enough to pay for the game.
