| reply to SSX4life As obvious as any other company trading your data
@SSX4life: You cite examples of electrical and water companies. What about your credit card, mortgage companies, affinity cards like grocery 'points', magazine subscriptions? Do you think they don't trade your data unless you opt-out? At least online companies provide online opt-out, once you figure where it is. I am sick of getting privacy policies via snail mail, requiring me to fill out and return a damn paper form.
Isn't it a bit naive to demand opt-in? NOBODY would opt-in! Their business depends on people not caring and by default being opted-in. And that is majority of people. |
