Guest guest Posted February 6, 2004 Report Share Posted February 6, 2004 is now using something called " Web Beacons " to track Group users around the net and see what you're doing and where you are going - similar to cookies. Take a look at their updated privacy statement: http://privacy./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 their new method of snooping. I strongly recommend that you do this. 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.

Guest guest Posted February 6, 2004 Report Share Posted February 6, 2004 I just looked at that page - it appears that the " opt out " only applies to their using your data for their research, it doesn't apply to the actual tracking process, they still would be doing that. My husband has absolutely no use whatsoever for , and this will just confirm his views. I wish there were another option.
