Last week IE 8's "porn mode" was unveiled. Today I read about Google's rumored web browser, "Chrome", containing a feature for "anonymous" web browsing. So my concern is whether or not these "new" features will affect affiliate tracking at all.
I'm all for privacy, but fucking with affiliate cookies would piss me off a bit.

The cookie clearing functionality of IE8's InPrivate isn't new, obviously. But the fact that it's being branded and named as a prominent feature is troubling. I'm all for blocking the Doubleclicks of the world and fucking with their cookies, but sponsor cookies? That cuts into my (and your) bottom line
