Re: Yahoo seeing coming heat jumps on opt-out of customized ads

Of course Yahoo will still be collecting browsing and search info - just not use it to target ads if you opt-out. So this doesn't address any privacy issues - just what ads you might see if you don't block all of them anyway.
What companies say and what companies ultimately do are often two different things -- take anything AT&T has ever said, for example.

But if the Yahoo! opt-out works the way that you (and many others) believe that it will, then it will truly be lame.
