Optionally block requests when visitorId is given but user has cookies disabled #5

We know that when cookies are disabled, no visitorId will be set unless it is set manually.

If a user knows they have set the disableCookies in the tracking code for all sites, then we could block any tracking request that has a visitorId set as it has to be spam/bots.

When this happens we would also block all future requests for up to 24 hours similar to the max actions logic.
