Re: obvious

Do you think these same rules should apply to Google or Yahoo? They collect user info and their system is opt-out and is spelled out in their privacy policy too.

All businesses should keep the opt-out option out of their privacy policy. However, the user should be given the option to opt out before they can use any service. This should be spelled out on a single document before any services can be rendered.

Except that Google/Yahoo's cookies aren't quite as intrusive/persistent as Nebuad. Once Google/Yahoo cookies are deleted, they stay deleted until you visit the site again. Nebuad is an entirely different matter.
