/**
 * This is a Java Servlet port of evercookie_cache.php, the server-side
 * component of Evercookie's cacheData mechanism.
 * 
 * Install this servlet at /evercookie_cache.php in your web.xml (or add a @WebServlet
 * annotation) and you won't even need to modify evercookie.js! This assumes
 * that Evercookie's assets are in your web root.
 * 
 * Of course, if you have set $_ec_baseurl to something, you should install this
 * at [$_ec_baseurl]evercookie_cache.php. Remember, $ec_baseurl needs a trailing
 * slash in the evercookie.js.
