Amazing, Facebook has backed down from unilateral user profiling to the corporanistas,
But Americans glide by while they are being spied on in every e-mail & domestic phone call in a 'Carnivore' type data-mining program.
Facebook Revamps New Advertising System
Michael Lietke, 30 Nov 07
SAN FRANCISCO — Seeking to keep the peace in its popular online hangout, Facebook Inc. has overhauled a new advertising system that sparked privacy complaints by turning its users into marketing tools for other companies.
Under the changes outlined late Thursday, Facebook's 55 million users will be given greater control over whether they want to participate in a three-week-old program that circulates potentially sensitive information about their online purchases and other activities.
Facebook provided two different opportunities to block the details from being shared, but many users said they never saw the "opt-out" notices before they disappeared from the screen.
With the reforms, Facebook promised its users will now have to give their explicit consent, or "opt-in," before any information is passed along.http://www.huffingtonpost.com/huff-wires/20071130/facebook-about-face/
Every single phone transmission in the US is routed to secret spyroom hardware then recorded on a supercomputer hardrive & then sifted with datamining software.
The NSA is operating completely outside the law.
They are gathering all your creditcard numbers, banking account numbers, passwords, Social Security numbers, any identification, & even pin numbers, whenever you use them on the internet.
you are being treated as a terrorist suspect without even a blanket warrant from a judge.
You would say, but they would never use them criminally,
but they are already using them criminally, and NO ONE is watching.
Please, for all our sakes, speak out about this unconstitutional, lawless travesty.
