Possibly. However, a whole lot of sites throw out cookies for every
document served, and I certainly don't feel in control of thousands of
cookies. I can't be bothered to change browser settings site by site.
There's a basic rule about web technology: if it can be abused, it will
be abused. And probably in the majority of cases where it is used at
all.
