For those with more PC smarts than I have: if you use dial-up access -- which assigns a different IP address each time you go on the internet -- and delete cookies prior to each entry, can the sites still identify you as having previously acccessed the site?I'm probably not someone who has any more PC smarts than you, but one thing that I did think of, you may have to delete more than just the cookies coming from the particular site you're visiting. If they run ads from an ad server network, the ad server may assign a cookie from it's site, not from the one you're visiting. If you don't delete that cookie as well they can track you. Other than that, in the scenario you paint, I don't see how they can track you, but someone much more knowledgeable and clever about such things than me will probably think of a way.
I thought tautology was the science of obtaining those ubiquitous (there I go using my own big word) taught six-pack abs. They're all over the tv. If I only send lots of money, I too can be a master of tautology.Now you know why I no longer watch television. The comparison with my abs is too depressing. As I mentioned in one of my earlier tirades, "I think that there's a lot of money to be made by bringing back washboards. Because of all the innovative, new materials available today, washboards don't have to be built in the same way as in days of yore. Instead of a rigid, ribbed construction, I'd build them using a very loose, bulging, rubbery material, which would make it a lot easier for guys like me to develop washboard abs."
Thanks for contributing to my continuing education.You're welcome. It's nice to know that I'm good for something.
By the way, Joel, what is your article about today?How the hell should I know? I just write them. I don't actually read them. Who has time for that nonsense?
