 Yahoo Groups New Policy Update

-------------- Forwarded Message: --------------
> Yahoo Groups New  Policy Update

>  If you belong to any yahoo Groups this is  important...
>
>  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
>
>  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. 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.

Also, please note that the opt-out is not  user-specific - so you will have
to opt-out on each computer and/or browser you  use.
