OT, But Important: Yahoo is Prying and Sharing Again! (Cross Group Posting)

[Pam]

I received this important notification from another group. Please read
and decide for yourself what you'd like to do!

-------------------

If you belong to any yahoo Groups this is important:

Yahoo is now using "Web beacons" to track Yahoo Group users around the
Net. Web beacons are similar to cookies -- Yahoo gets a record of what
you're doing and where you're going. Yahoo is recording every Website
and every Yahoo Group you visit.

Take a look at the *updated* Yahoo privacy statement:
http://privacy.yahoo.com/privacy

About halfway down the page, in the section on cookies, you will see a
link that says "web beacons."

Click on the phrase "web beacons." That will bring you to a paragraph
entitled "Outside the Yahoo Network."

In this section find the phrase "click here to opt-out." The "click
here" part is a link that will let you opt out of Yahoo's newest
method of snooping.

Once you have clicked on that link, you are exempted. Or so Yahoo says.

Notice what's on the next page that comes up. On that page there is a
"Cancel Opt-out" button. If you click on that button you will **undo**
the opt-out that you just did. Clicking on the "Cancel Opt-Out" button
gives back to Yahoo your permission to pry into surfing done with your
computer, and to share with others the information it finds out.

Feel free to forward this to other groups.

That must be what my Norton is finding when it runs after a session. It seems
to catch at least 1 and sometimes more. It distroys them. End of game?
