You are aware that using cookies to track a user who doesn't want to be
tracked won't work, because he'll just tell his browser to not use
cookies, aren't you.
Nick, if a user doesn't want to be tracked, you can't track them. The
user controls all the data their machine sends to you. This means that
they can manipulate it. Nothing you can do will prevent this.
