If it applies to you by participating on a Yahoo group then you can make your choice. If it does not apply Sorry for bringing it up. FYI: > > 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. Once > you have > clicked that link, you are opted out. Notice the "Success" message at > the top > of the next page. Be careful because on that page there is a "Cancel > Opt- out" button that, if clicked, will *undo** the opt-out. > > Feel free to forward this to other groups. -- To unsubscribe yourself from this list, send the following message to majormajoratos2voice.org unsubscribe news end If you have an announcement you would like posted to the VOICE News list, please send it to submitatos2voice.org.
