I will not cookie.
Cookies are the privacy killer.
Cookies are the little death that lead to total dystopia.
I will block my cookies.
I will permit them to pass over my firewall and into /dev/null
And when it is gone I will turn to see its route
Where the cookie has gone there will be nothing. I will hack the planet.
