Just read about "evercookies." What should we do about them from a personal privacy perspective?
If you're talking about the https://samy.pl/evercookie script, for what it's worth, you can defeat it (at least I can with my settings and no extensions) by...

Pure CSS device fingerprinting - An experimental technique.
Sure, as Sevetarion said earlier "There is no actual cooke, it's just a metaphor". In contrast to "fingerprinting" a user's unique device configuration (as the rest of this demo does), anti-tracking folks use the term "cookie" broadly to refer to various ways sites can store unique values to be retrieved later. This usage grew out of Samy Kamkar's awesome "Evercookie" work in 2010 (later aka "supercookie") https://samy.pl/evercookie/

I thought id show that jumbo security is not as usefull as it claims
Nothing comes to mind directly, sorry. It’s something I want to look deeper into myself as well. One cool thing to look at is evercookie which is a GitHub project that allows you to make tracking cookies and the likes. The repo itself hasn’t been updated in a while but can probably be a good source of information.

Fix favicon "supercookies" in any browser, in under a second
Also note, something like the Evercookie may also still be a thing that works. It stores data not only in cookies, but also in everything else that can retain any form of state (localStorage, HTTP browser history, HTTP cache for custom fingerprinted images generated by the server, etc.), and if even one spot doesn't get cleared by the user, the script can re-populate all the spots making for a very persistent "cookie."

https://github.com/notracking/hosts-blocklists seems dead. https://raw.githubusercontent.com/DandelionSprout/adfilt/master/LegitimateURLShortener.txt should work except the regex rules.
