Safari already blocks most third-party cookies, yet Google Analytics works in Safari. An explanation of how GA pulls it off can be found here: http://webpolicy.org/2012/02/17/safari-trackers/

that looks like they're talking about doubleclick, not google analytics. GA works by setting a first party cookie, so there's no need to work around anything. https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/collection...

edit: oh, jonknee already mentioned that below.
