You said "Guess what: Your digital security and privacy is your responsibility." and then later you referred to "the small minority of people, like many here, who are hyper vigilante about digital privacy." Those are just your opinions and characterizations and they don't have anything to do with cookies.

Yes, that is my opinion. That is my take on life: Everything is your responsibility that you can reasonably manage. In my view, you can't depend on the government or anyone else to take that mantle of responsibility from you as an individual. If they can help, great. But I'm not depending on it.
If there is something practical and cost effective that the government has the responsibility to enact, I'll hear out the idea. But this is not one of those ideas--as you said--in my personal opinion.
