Guest guest Posted January 5, 2009 Report Share Posted January 5, 2009 >>>> Is Tracking Group Members Anonymous 1-5-9 Just got this from another Group owner and thought I would pass along the information: is Tracking Group Members If you belong to ANY - be aware that is now using " Web Beacons " to track every user. It's similar to cookies, but allows to record every website and every group you visit, even when you're not connected to . Look at their updated privacy statement at http://info./privacy/us//details.html About half-way down the page, in the section on cookies, you will see a link that says WEB BEACONS. Click on the phrase " Web Beacons. " On the page that opens, on the left find a box entitled " Opt-Out. " . In that section find " opt-out of interest-matched advertising " link that will let you " opt-out " of their snooping. Click it and then click the opt-out button on the next page. Note that 's invasion of your privacy - and your ability to opt-out of it - is not user-specific. It is MACHINE specific. That means you will have to opt-out on every computer (and browser) you use. Please forward this to your other groups. You might complain, too, but I'm not sure if anyone is listening. I remember when they signed all users up to get spam and we had to opt out of that a few years ago. Please send this to anyone or any group you would like. <<<<<< Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
