OT/ has changed it privacy to track you more - here's how to opt out

[Guest guest]

I thought everyone would want to know about this if they haven't heard already .

 

Hugs,

Sorry for the cross post, but I think this is important - List Moms - delete

if you disagree.

 

Anyone who is concerned about their privacy whilst surfing might like

to know this. It's happened before, but appear to have re-set

everyone's settings back to the 'we'll track you're Internet

movements' version even if you previously opted out.

 

They are using something called " Web Beacons " to track

users around the net and see what you're doing and where you are going

- similar to cookies but sneakier.

 

Take a look at their updated privacy statement:

/privacy/us/pixels/details.html>

 

About half-way down the page, in the section " Outside the

Network " , you'll see a little " click here " link that will let you

" opt-out " of this method of snooping.!

 

ONCE YOU HAVE CLICKED THAT LINK - YOU ARE OPTED OUT!!!

 

Notice the " Success " message the top the next page. BE CAREFUL because

on that page there is a " Cancel Opt-out " button that, if clicked, will

*undo** the opt-out.

 

Feel free to forward this to other groups.

Well said, this tracking is for commercial gain, or as a method to

spy on their customers for who knows what reasons. If tracking is

necessary for criminal reasons then the authorities can do that

themselves, it is NOT the business of private internet companies.
