INTERNET - YOUR COMPUTER & BIG BROTHER's LATEST

When years ago The Times published information about Clinton's emails being
tapped, and by whom, a couple of things must have been obvious, and an
eyeopener to those who didn't know yet - Url.: http://tinyurl.com/cjokw

So, please do keep in mind, that ALL - repeat ALL - firms like Microsoft
etc. since their start have been closely cooperating with the intelligence
crooks. In 99.99 % of the cases your computer is an open book to them.
Including the iMacs. It's all build in, and we must pay for it.

AND IT REALLY DOESN'T MATTER IF YOU 'BELONG TO A GROUP' OR NOT.

"Web Beacons" to track every Yahoo Group user.

If you belong to ANY Yahoo Groups - be aware that Yahoo is now using
"Web Beacons" to track every Yahoo Group user.

It's similar to cookies, but allows Yahoo to record every website and every
group you visit, even when you're not connected to Yahoo.

Look at their updated privacy statement at - Url.:
http://privacy.yahoo.com/privacy.

About half-way down the page, in the section on cookies,
you will see a link that says WEB BEACONS.

Click on the phrase "Web Beacons." On the page that opens,
find a paragraph entitled "Outside the Yahoo Network."

In that section find a little "Click Here to Opt Out" link, that will
let you "opt-out" of their snooping. Be careful NOT! to click on
the next button shown.

It is an "Opt Back In" button that, if clicked, will UNDO the opt-out.

Note that Yahoo's invasion of your privacy - and your ability to opt-out
of it - is not user-specific. It is MACHINE specific. That means you will
have to opt-out on every computer (and browser) you use.

PLEASE FORWARD THIS TO YOUR OTHER GROUPS. YOU MIGHT COMPLAIN,
TOO, BUT I'M NOT SURE IF ANYONE IS LISTENING...

YAHOO WEB BEACONS IGNITING CONTROVERSY

Yahoo's current privacy policy is causing consternation among some users who
object to their use of so-called 'web beacons'. Known in most circles as web
bugs, these invisible images are embedded in websites and email and used to
track your surfing - and even tell whether you've opened a particular email.
