Personally, I think the cookie law could be expanded a bit further. Currently, I'm not always appropriately notified that the website I'm visiting uses cookies. How about we institute a law that requires browsers to implement a feature that detects when a cookie is stored, locks the browser and proceeds to play an unbridged rendition of the Ode to Freedom (yes, that's really what it's called) while displaying a full page warning that you have to manually accept. Later, we could expand the mechanism to cover websites that use CSS stylesheets.
