How quickly we forget ...
Don't we remember the huge outcry over Intel putting a unique ID in every
CPU which would could be transmitted via web browser and destroy all of our
privacy?
The frustration we feel as programmers who are trying to identify anonymous
visitors
is exactly what privacy is all about.
And I am thankful for it.
Get used to it.
People need to opt-in in order to be identified.
The closest thing we can get to this is people leaving their cookies
enabled on their
browser.
