I’m not sure what these companies could do instead if tracking were illegal, and punishment severe enough to stop it. Any ideas? I know they have tried tracking users based on fonts installed etc, but any means could be included in a broad anti-tracking law.

If the new techniques were worse, then they should be dealt with. I don’t find the possibility reason enough not to stop this current practice.
