As a morally upstanding website, I’m obligated to ask if I may track your visits here?
Why?
This is so that I look through your bedroom window at night, stalk my exes, co-workers, and beguiling Parisian shopkeepers across the globe. Also, I’d like to use Google Analytics to note how many visits the site gets, and get a vague idea about which country visitors are from, and what colour underwear they have on.

Also fine. With crushing irony, your browser will keep a tiny file called a cookie that contains the word “no”
. That tells me not to record your visits and also not to ask you about it for a year or so.
