Hah, the joke is on them: I browse with cookies disabled.

Of course, I'm sure they have some other way to pwn me, but it's nice to know that I was doing something right.



if you browse with cookies disabled, that means you cannot successful browse arounds sites logged in - correct ? you basically do a ctrl+shift+N in chrome every time you open a new window ?


I have a select few sites whitelisted, but they're disabled by default.

Also, I'm on Iceweasel/ Firefox instead of Chrome. It's probably nothing to worry about, but you can never be too careful these days.


It's interesting but also annoying how my browsing is now diverged from the web as others see it. I mean, with increased amounts of blocking addons, the difference between an adblocked, ghostery'd, etc browsing experience to the vanilla experience is growing bigger.
