Big Brother is just a mouse click away. Our online activity is being tracked, recorded, and then sold to the highest bidder – all thanks to a little line of programming code called a “cookie.” Its inventor, Lou Montulli, says that without cookies, the web would be even creepier. Produced by Studio 360’s Derek John.
