Well, I'm certainly willing to go to school here, but my inital response is that I think cookies are a bit overrated. How do you depend on them?

If it's a matter of making sure affiliate codes track through a sponsor site, there are two situations:

1.) The surfer does a one-time erasure of cookies. In this case he'll get a new cookie as soon as he clicks through to a tour again.

2.) The surfer sets his browser or uses software to block all cookies. In this case almost every practical site he goes to will require re-entering data each time, etc. which makes the normal surfing expierience more difficult, for nnonporn as well as porn surfing. So he'll probably unblock cookies in short order.

If cookies are used for tracking your own traffic, frankly, a good stats program does that for me. I don't use cookies on my free sites, etc.

I'm sure there must be a practical application that doesn't include these two examples, so I'd be happy to have it explained to me.

Frankly I'm a lot more concerned about surfers being able to selectively block Javascript, although the same considerations apply as listed above.
