    Ah. I took your post as thinking Apple were filing the suit and wondering why they didn't ask for more. Now I see you were surprised they weren't filing in the first place.

    Make that two.

    Clearly not everyone was fine with it if browser developers felt like putting their effort into implementing tracking prevention options. I can't claim to personally been asking for such options but feel the need to pitch and say having done without in the past isn't reason alone to do without in the present and future.

    What is a Privacy Suit, is it some sort of cloaking device?

    I just don't care, it's a no-win situation with the way the web has been built. If you want to use the internet you either opt in, or go nuts as liratheal has described above.

    Also, lawsuits should be banned - end of. They are ruining the world far more than a few sodding cookies.
