Yahoo Privacy Invasion
Yahoo is using Web Beacons
Yahoo is now using Web Beacons to track Yahoo Group users around the net. The Web Beacons record every website and every group you visit. If you would like to opt out of their tracking system, here's how to do it:
- Click here: http:⁄⁄privacy.yahoo.com⁄privacy
- In the column on the left side, under "Special Topics", click "cookies"
- At the bottom of this new page you will see a link that says "Click here for more information on other companies' cookies on the Yahoo! Network." Click that
- On that new page click the phrase "web beacon".
- That will bring you to a paragraph entitled "Outside the Yahoo Network." In this section you'll see a little "click here to opt out" link. Click it.
- Then STOP. That button you see would cancel your opt out, so do not press it. It says you've successfully opted out, so go somewhere else.
