What do mean? Isn’t this verdict a pretty good example of how the law actually is enforceable?
For Facebook to lie in such a lawsuit would require hundreds of their employees being willing to lie under oath. It just doesn’t make sense, considering they would risk harsh criminal sanctions and have only their usual salary as an upside.
As for IP-based tracking: if it were as effective as cookies, websites would use IPs and not cookies.

Given how most of facebook's development is done in the US and not in Belgium, they won't even have to appear in court. Also IP-based tracking is very effective, and it's used alongside cookies. Nothing beats cookies with Javascript, but IP will do just fine, especially for companies like Facebook and Google who can track you on pretty much every click you take.
