More Cookie Investigations
This time, CNet is caught up in cookie paranoia with their ‘special investigation’ into use of cookies on the Senate and House representative websites.” From the article: “Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., for instance, has been a longtime advocate of strict privacy laws to restrict commercial Web sites’ data collection practices. In a statement posted on his own Web site, McCain assures visitors that ‘I do not use ‘cookies’ or other means on my Web site to track your visit in any way.’ But visiting mccain.senate.gov implants a cookie on the visitor’s PC that will not expire until 2035.
