>ban guns because people kill with them

I have arguments all the time with people that think that way. I am
certain that there are many anti-cookie people who fully understand
that cookies don't invade privacy, people invade privacy - yet want
to kill cookies before they're born. So it's not pro-privacy and
pro-cookies: it's anti-choice and pro-choice.

The anti-choicers are throwing out the baby with the bath water.

I surf only accepting cookies sent back to the server that served the
web page ... but I kinda am in a condrum whether this is fair or not
... I'm on their turf and should abide by any rules they set ... and
if one of their rules is that they can tell anybody they want about
where I've been and what I've seen on their site, that seems
reasonable. But I find myself trying to make it difficult for them to
do so.

But yes, the article was misleading to the point of being untruthful
... pissed me off when I read it.
