I am deeply pessimistic about the potential for tracker-blind browsing without extraordinary measures. A simple plugin or cookie rules simply do not and cannot cut it.
There are just umpteen million ways to fingerprint a device. What plugins do you have installed? What is your font list? What can be deduced about your device's make/model/revision from things like HTML feature support? Then you have WebGL and other technologies that potentially allow for hardware fingerprinting via various methods, slight differences in JS performance revealing things about your JS runtime engine's revision (JIT differences, etc.). Don't even get me started on all the myriad things you can do with TCP, ICMP, network latency, geo-ip, etc.
Anything less than onion routing (Tor and friends) combined with a high-isolation virtual machine or separate hardware device and a browser with no persistent state whatsoever is probably provably inadequate to protect you from fingerprinting or tracking. Any un-obscured network path back to you, access to any form of non-generic local hardware or storage, or persistent state equals fingerprinting/tracking hacks.
It's like using simple XOR for "encryption" and then saying "well, it's better than nothing." Yeah, maybe it's a nano-something better than nothing but it's basically nothing. You might as well not even bother.
Personally I think privacy is dead dead dead dead dead and we need to start talking seriously about what kinds of new political mechanisms and safeguards we need to mitigate abuse. This is a political problem and does not have a technical solution that doesn't come with a lot of cost -- e.g. the enormous performance overhead of onion routing and the inconvenience of secure computing environments. 99.999% of users are not going to do any of that stuff and never will.
