| both sides of the, erm, cookie?
I can on the other hand see this technology being useful, for example there are some cookies I want to keep, the sad reality is that this technology will, for the most part, be used to ensure you keep the spyware cookies that are force-fed to you. I don't actually think there is much to this really, all that happens is a lookup is done on a database of IP (or possibly MAC addresses) to cookies and if the last incarnatioon of the cookie isn't there, you get it back.
Marketeing people are idiots, they think it's their God given right to hijack any medium that comes along and ram advertising down your throat.

All of you college kids, pay attention. Marketing/Advertising is full of people that didn't get real degrees or didn't take their education seriously. In ten years, this could be you!!! |

It's not that they are idiots. Actually, they are very creative in ramming that advert down your throat. What is is, is that they just flat dont care about your privacy, as long as there is a dollar to be made. They dont have to deal with it, you do. |
