Description

@muchlikeacat

One of the described management functions in FMT_MOF_EXT.1.1 is:
4 Enable and disable ability for websites to collect tracking information about the user through [selection: zombie cookies, add-on based tracking (e.g., Flash cookies), browsing history, [assignment: other tracking mechanisms] ]

This mentions "Flash cookies" as an example, but Flash is dead. Modern tracking tends to abuse HTML5 features though techniques like Canvas Fingerprinting. Recommend simply dropping the "e.g." clause
