Can't tell if I sense sarcasm or not? Too many folks "talk" about how they're so against data collection, mining, cookies, etc. but use these same tools on their own sites/apps.


Maybe just one of those "all-encompassing" privacy policies that 'privacy policy generators' spit out?


These just opt you out of browser options, cookies, etc. I'd like to see a tool that actually removes real PII from these co's databases. Know of a tool around that does it?


We need to update the fair credit reporting act with a data retention and opt out section for online activities. The key would be making the violations punitive enough that only crooks, and not these supposedly respectable corporations, would be willing to abuse.
