If all of the web apps on the internet used cookies like w3t does (or did? haven't looked lately) I could go around getting peoples info left and right..
It might not be the cookies fault that the information is there, but it IS the cookies fault that I am able to GET that information!!!!!

Even if all sites used cookies the way w3t did before, only the sites that allowed you to post would let you get people's info. Many sites _do_ use cookies this way (login info), but don't let you steal them, since you can't post JS on the pages the user goes to.
And it's not the cookie's fault you're able to get that info in the insecure situations...it's the website programmer's fault! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" />
