ISPs endorse user opt-in on Web tracking, deflect calls for privacy laws
nb1 writes "Three of the four largest Internet service providers in the U.S. promised today that they will adopt policies requiring them to get meaningful permission from customers before tracking their online activities for targeted advertising purposes.
But the ISPs also took the opportunity to tell federal lawmakers at a U.S. Senate committee hearing that new legislation aimed at protecting online privacy isn't needed at this point.

FTC New E-mail Address for Deceptive Spam
nb1 writes "The Federal Trade Commission receives about 300,000 samples of deceptive spam – forwarded by computer users each day, and stores it in a database. The FTC and its law enforcement partners use the database to generate cases against people who use spam to spread false or misleading information about their products or services. To better handle the high volume of spam forwarded to the database, the FTC recently opened a new email box
The FTC’s spam database has served as the basis for FTC cases involving pyramid schemes, money-making chain letters, credit card scams, credit repair scams, bogus weight-loss plans, fraudulent business opportunities, and other scams that were promoted via email.
Consumers who wish to forward unwanted or deceptive spam to the FTC should use the New E-mail address. Whenever you complain about spam, it's important to include the full email header.
