Meh

Personally i always delete all of my cookies after an internet session.

I know that the majority of them are harmless but i prefer to have a clean machine each time that i log on the net.I know that some sites do not like that we constantly delete them but meh , they will have to live with it.:D

There is absolutely no point in this "lets improve the image of cookies" campaign for the simple fact that the majority of mainstream users probably don't even know what a cookie is in the first place.

Waste of time and money imo

Re: Meh

trans fat is a buzzword to draw in morons

as if the saturated fat that contains no trans fat somehow becomes healthy

Such tactics are committing unethical, illegal and

They say (generically) that "The user is not proficient enough in technology to know if the cookie is good or bad, or how it works," and since I am a user I am not proficient? I have 20 years experience with this stuff, hell I used a modified teletype machine to get email and Usenet in the mid '80s. I've been around the net since well before we had web browsers and the HTTP protocol. And they say that because I delete cookies I am dumb and not proficient?

You delete files - the reason is irrelevant - they a on your computer , that is all that matters. A third party comes along and “undeletes” a file that you deleted? That is patently unauthorized access.

I publicly charge that:

* and any person, company or entity who creates, publishes, and uses such tactics are committing unethical, illegal and tortuous acts.

* such remote undeletion (software) violates the following (inclusive but not limited to):

- 18 U.S.C. 1029, Unauthorized network access.
- 18 U.S.C. 1030, Computer Fraud
- 18 U.S.C. 2701, et.seq, Violations of Electronic Communications Act

er...that would be tortious acts...though I can sympathize with your leap to subjective juxtaposition of effect versus legal exactitude.
