interested. This has been going around for a while at various yahoo groups and
it is real.

> Yahoo is now using something called "Web Beacons" to track > Yahoo Group users around the net and see what you're doing and where > you are going - similar to cookies. Yahoo is recording every website > and every group you visit. Take a look at their updated privacy > statement: > > <http://privacy.yahoo.com/privacy> 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. > http://privacy.yahoo.com/privacy/us/beacons/details.html > 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 that will let you "opt-out" of their new method of snooping. > > Once you have clicked that link, you are exempted. > > Notice the "Success" message on 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.
