On paranoia

This graduation thing is making me a paranoid. First I semantically obfuscated my email addresses everywhere and now I just turned off cookies on my browser after reading this: http://www.cookiecentral.com/. gmail and most sites which need some sort of a user identification ofcourse use cookies so you have to go selectively allow cookies for certain sites. But after reading how doubleclick.net uses cookies, I really don't mind the extra effort.

After my MS, I will probably be such a security paranoid as to even block ssh connections to my machine as Linus does :-(. Ignorance is such a bliss!
