New IAB Research Shows 12% Of Web Users Reject Cookies

New research commissioned by the IAB and presented at its board meeting this week shows that as many as 12 percent of consumers don't accept third-party cookies--that is, the cookies set by ad servers and analytics companies that track the Web sites that consumers visit and the ads they view, among other data.

So the IAB is looking into an ad campaign to educate brain wash us into not blocking ads. This is a brilliant idea. Why don't you yahoos get a clue that people block cookies and firewall known ad servers because we don't want to see the ads -- especially the f'ing Flash ones that blink fast enough to give even a normal person a seizure.
