It's an argument for, as I said, that people have a tendency of disproportionately focusing on the harmful effect of new things, all the while ignoring anything that is sufficiently old.

I find giving ulterior parties my name, and the physical location on the planet I live far more scary than being tracked by cookies without such cookies being able to be tied to such things.
