With an attitude like that you clearly don't want to use their services, so just block them. Start off with something along the lines of http://www.mvps.org/winhelp2002/hosts.txt and add your own entries for sites you don't want tracking you Requestpolicy + noscript does the job for me, but it is a bit of a pain for the first week or three configuring what sites are allowed & it's more for people that might want to allow some of that instead of completely blocking it.
