I have them enabled. Why WOULDN'T someone enable them? This
is a technical question. Why would you disable cookies, what
problems can they cause?

cookies enable your IP to be recognized more easily by
external servers. Its like slapping a big sticker on your
ass or hooking you onto the end of a fishing line.

Its good because sites you revisit will reload quicker
because the previous 'cookied' connection will reactivate.

Its bad because marketers can trace your movements all over
the web and pry on your surfing and spending habits for
their market research and web trends analysis.

Also, if you wind up in a site which has dubious content,
the authorities can trace you more easily because the server
in question has slapped a big one on you.

Its better to de-activate them in my experience. Also anyone
else can see exactly where you've been if they check your
cookies. some innocent sites have dodgy sounding names which
could cause unwanted suspicion..

fuck it its your choice.
