I find myself cynically wondering, if such a site becomes bothersome to those placing tracking cookies (and the site mentions articles in Wired), how long it would take before they would disable adding them for destinations known to be revealing it?

I guess it could be automated in a small way too, such that if the cookie was detected as being returned to the browser then the site gets flagged and it won't get it again.

Alternatively, only add the cookie when requesting pages from partner sites known to be tracking it.
