"Too bad about the cookies"? I've yet to _ever_ see anyone do anything
malicious with cookies. There is a security model in place which prevents
most possible misuse. (Some places, like double-click, kind of sneak around
the security model, but even they are fairly sensitive to concerns (they've
got a stated privacy policy, and an opt-out page)). And even if some misuse
were to happen, they're not going to be able to get out any more information
than _they_ set.
If you're missing out on stuff you want to see because you refuse to visit
sites which issue cookies, I think you're way overreacting.
