The disturbing scale of the personal data harvested and traded by multinationals can be revealed today.
Health details, children’s voice recordings and copies of passports can be at risk when customers tick an online consent box.
Analysis by the Mail found that Marriott International, Facebook, Asda, Paypal, BT and Tesco engaged in hidden data harvesting and sharing.
Giant firms can use personal data to build a profile of customers for targeted adverts or to pass to other organisations.

So, may I ask: is there anyone on this earth who is exempt from having his data collected?
Because it appears only those rich enough to travel by private jet and able to delegate all their purchases to the help or to shell companies have their privacy respected.
Very useful indeed, if your travel plans for that day involve a trip to Epstein’s island for a pedophile orgy on the shareholders’ tab.

I expect TrueDope to bow … deeply … to the East. To his handlers.
The chicoms called in the old booze artist Jug McCallum and read him the riot act? Ha ha. Jug was probably still half lit when he had to face the music. They must have thought they were at a Foster Brooks show in Vegas.
Bongo’s totally screwed the good will he inherited from the chicoms. They cut him a lot of slack because of his old man, mao strong, da liddle thief and hell lets toss in the commie Norman Bethune.
This wont have a happy ending.
So don’t tick the box, and don’t drag us into your angry power fantasies about breaking up those companies that have the success you could only dream of. Instead, consider focusing on the actual threats to our liberty ie the NSA
Or the FISA Court if you happen to humiliate the apparent heir to America’s … uh “institutions”.
The whole point is that it’s becoming increasingly difficult to buy or sell unless you tick the box—or you’re one of the very rich and powerful people whose privacy is actually respected.
Again, they are not private institutions when they are corporate welfare recipients. When you exist because subsidies and preferential treatment you get be regulated by taxpayers. This was already explained to you so FOAD.
And again, the only reason you support them is because they serve your agenda. You’re just as cynical in discovering their property rights as they themselves are.
colon, just “visit” a web site, and they have your info, box ticking not needed!
“Again, they are not private institutions when they are corporate welfare recipients. When you exist because subsidies and preferential treatment”
They aren’t and they don’t. They aren’t getting subsidies anymore than oil companies get welfare by not paying a carbon tax.
Sure NPC when facts don’t fit the narrative too bad for the facts. They are and they do and they are much less regulated than oil companies. Just STFU everyone reads through your BS anyway.
The larger the corporation, the larger the government handouts. It can be as simple as a reduced land tax to build in a certain area.
unDork, you don’t understand economics, need for borders, need for controlled immigration, basic human social dynamics, and now you show us you don’t understand how these shithole companies harvest info. I warned a friend abut 5 years ago that stuff she posted to me on “messenger” (privately) would be harvested. Fact I waned my SIL, who is an IT guy, about this 25 years ago. As a ‘scientist’ you are really stupid and uninformed!
Funny how getting caught playing “Stasi Division” causes people to want your blood…

So, they target advertise me with stuff I already buy? Kind of a waste of time and pointless. At my age I know what I like and keep buying the same, advertising doesn’t sway me and showing me stuff that I already buy is quite boring to me. At least advertisements on stuff that I have never used becomes entertaining at times.
