Broadband Users’ Activities To Be Monitored
| Charter Communications, the fourth largest Internet Service Providers in the United States, has reportedly begun telling some of its 2.7 million broadband users that they’ll be monitoring every web site they visit to help web advertisers deliver targeted ads. |
Charter offers an opt-out option.
Take it.
And tell them they should really be going the opt-in route instead.
If your broadband provider is not Charter, better find out if your provider is following or thinking of implementing the Charter model.
Thinking the Web is a private place really does require the willing suspension of disbelief.
