We should assume anyone visiting a site without some kind of credentialed login is a 'bot'.

Or for all intents and purposes 'noise' traffic.

It'd be nice for the powers that be develop an anonymous cookie standard to allow people to flag themselves as 'humans' without enabling the host to know anything about them.

We are fighting wars over problems that we have created for ourselves.



No one is gonna use your malware tracking cookies, I always block them and Chrome as good browser also detects such usage. Also, by european law, you have no force to make "anonymous" cookie. We already lived after evercookies, now there are no any evercookies.

If I ever detect that site uses "anonymous" cookies without my consent, well you will have to pay a lot of $$ for me as a compensation. Enjoy, try your luck, man. I need money, anyways and I love jurisdiction.

Move on.
