The point of having a score is so you can keep track of what you achieved and feel good for it. Can you tell how much healthier you are after brushing your teeth?
That would be indeed very disturbing, but your hypothesis is technically flawed.
Flash files can not access cookies placed by other domains, i.e. the cookies are partitioned. Pay a visit to your Flash cookies directory and this differentiation becomes very clear, there's a different folder for each website domain.
You talk like if it's the game developer fault that browsers treat Flash cookies differently. It's not the Flash player that controls what will be erased when the user clears his navigation history.
For an article that is supposed to be about writing skills, it was fairly painful to read. Disconnected sentences, two line paragraphs and citations sprinkled around like Parmesan cheese.
- selecting and clicking on see-through buttons (the background will change too much)
- the program access to the actual game for seeing, clicking and typing - the game's anti-hack detection / counter-measures - macro playing lag (see video)

People who want to provide small games for masses or marketing products.
You seem to have to be exactly in line with the device, so I guess there can be only one watching it at a time? (acrobatics doesn't count)
It's all about having the option to choose between privacy and convenience.
Any device that can only run Flash would be equally bashed.
Without that, all they have is a user number. Back to the beginning:
The website knows that I'm the same person as before. So what?

Yo dawg, I herd you like browsers...

It's a different issue, but localhost is considered a domain, thus making all local Flash files share cookies.
I bet you can't remember the last time that you came across a site that uses patented GIF images, which was the point of the campaign.
The website knows that I'm the same person as before. So what?
Can someone explain me how can this be used against me if the cookies are stored in my personal computer?
You are telling me that the chances of getting a virus from a .swf file is the same as a .exe one? Really?
Yeah, there are exploits every now and then, but I have yet to know someone affected by them.
I'm not sure about you, but I prefer playing Flash games instead of downloading suspicious .exe files.
If you don't play Flash games, it's not a good reason to forbid everyone else to do so.
That's where I store my saves for sites like Kongregate.
Please, think of the Flash games.
The stream provider must love this.
A white-on-black pen wouldn't be that bad.
Lucky.
Either way, it's bad. 4chan is like a giant prison.
Guess what happens when you knock the walls down...
boredom can kill you
boredom can kill you
Martin Shipley, who co-wrote the report said, "The findings on heart disease show there was sufficient evidence to say there is a link with boredom."
"Correlation does not imply causation", anyone?
Things are getting a bit sensationalist around here.
You know, you could just put the brick ON THE PEDAL OF THE CAR.
Given a straight and long enough track, of course.
Shelley has reached speeds of 130 miles per hour without a driver on testing grounds at the Bonneville Salt Flats in Utah.
I could do much better with a brick.

kft? I hope I got your units wrong, or else this is a new low for the S.I. standards.
Things to take into account:
- selecting and clicking on see-through buttons (the background will change too much)
- the program access to the actual game for seeing, clicking and typing
- the game's anti-hack detection / counter-measures
- macro playing lag (see video)
But it seems very promising nevertheless.
