I'm not involved in anything that would be a victim of "Cookie Stuffing", so I don't know how any of these schemes use Cookies. As a result I can't follow pretty much anything you're talking about, because I don't know what the mechanisms are that are being perverted.

So, although I'm interested, and am probably in one of the target audiences for your post, I'm completely at sea as to what you're talking about.

A clear explanation of how affiliate schemes or whatever use cookies in the first place would be a great start. As it is, I have no comment, because I got nothing out of what you wrote, even though I read it carefully.
