Yahoo privacy changes.



Hi All,

I've just had this highlighted to me on one of my many yahoo mailing
lists, and thought you should all be warned.

----------------
Thought i'd pass this along to all of you just in case you all
didn't know. Yahoo is now using something called "Web Beacons" to
track Yahoo Group users around the net and see what you're doing -
similar to cookies. Take a look at their updated privacy statement...
http://privacy.yahoo.com/privacy/us/pixels/details.html
About half way down the page, in the section "Outside the Yahoo!
Network", you'll see a little "click here" link that will let you opt-
out of their new method of SNOOPING I recommend doing this, but be
careful when you get the next screen as it has a button that, if
clicked, will *undo* the opt-out!
-------------

Thanks

Stuart
