Give Me a Break (Warning non tech rant).

I swear I am so sick of our business & the US government's BS.

Read this on MSNBC.

Summary:

  • Company says “We won't sell your information.“ in privacy policy.
  • Company changes mind. Doesn't tell customers.
  • Company $ells Information to marketers including Name, Addresses and Phone numbers of adult customers. In addition, they sold meta-data about children in the household.
  • FTC says “Bad Company.“ Only fines them $4,600!
  • Company admits no wrong doing.

$4,600? No wrong doing? Give me a friggin' break.

When are we going to stop accepting this crap. Hooked on phonics. I really doubt it.

End of line.
