Do Not Track - How do we get around this???



They need to add a porn mode that blocks/disables everything but the basics temporarily with a single click.

Or maybe that's just called Safe Mode with Networking. :P
 
DNT means fuck all, it's a client side request that you can ignore, it does not affect functionality.

3rd party cookies, safari, ie8+ and others have "blocked" 3rd party cookies for years, except all you need is a p3p policy and it'll work as intended.

Browser vendors (google, apple, ms) have too much to lose by actually making it easy for the masses to start blocking shit, thats why you still have to click through several menus to actually change shit.
 
Tell people they can't use your site with cookies disabled? Pretty simple. Do a check, if you can't store a cookie, tell them to leave or enable them.

or just push them a session var in the url and keep your visitor?
 
Thanks for the replies I got a little spooked when they said an update in the future will decline third party cookies by default.

Most browsers do this including Chrome (incognito mode) and IE (inprivate mode)

Seems like the opportunity for more businesses to offer device fingerprinting is growing.
