There is at least one way that I know of to realize your dream. First, disable "do-not-track" header in your browser. Secondly, lobby for organizations to honor the "do-not-track" header. The whole world will thank you.

How does disabling the do-not-track header help me? I can't indicate that I take responsibility for handling the cookies by not sending a header, that would be passive 'consent' which doesn't qualify.

Also it's not that I'm consenting to being tracked I just don't care whether they set cookies as I will delete them automatically anyway. That's very different from telling them to go ahead and figure out my identity.
