I noticed that even when offline, there was a google cookie in my cookie directory, even though google is not whitelisted. So, I deleted it. And, lo and behold, it came back. Like that old song, "The very next day, the cat came back, 'cause it couldn't stay away." This makes me suspect that google is using something like an evercookie. I have self-destructing cookies plugin, delete lso cookies, have html5 storage turned off, keep the cache cleared, and yet, there it is, while I'm offline. "Do no evil" indeed. -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/users@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
