  • Yahoo expanding 'surveillance'

    Just ran across this:

    "Yahoo is now using something called 'Web Beacons' to track Yahoo Group users around the net and see what you're doing and where you are going similar to cookies. Yahoo is recording every website and every group you visit.

    Take a look at their updated privacy statement:

    http://privacy.yahoo.com/privacy

    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. "

    Includes instructions on how to find Yahoo's Opt-Out link.
    "The liberty of a democracy is not safe if the people tolerate the growth of private power to a point where it becomes stronger than the democratic state itself. That in its essence is fascism: ownership of the government by an individual, by a group or any controlling private power."
    -- Franklin Delano Roosevelt

    He may even miscalculate and slide these weapons off to terrorist groups to invite them to be a surrogate to use them against the United States. It’s the miscalculation that poses the greatest threat-John Kerry
