- How to cop an attitude...
-
This is what web facing companies do. They think they have to hide everything with one pixel web bugs, packet inspection and the like just to know what I like or want.
This sort of stealthy attitude, sneaking around to collect my behavior, attempting to lock me in as a customer (Oh hear me, Microsoft), selling my information to "partners", all of it has engendered an attitude on my part. That is this: if you have to advertise it, I probably don't need it.
Until advertisers and their customers change their attitude about why I should want to purchase their goods and services, I won't be changing mine.
Give me the option to control my information. Or give me a piece of the action. But don't tell me that I have to put up with behavior tracking just for the sake of revenue, all without my consent or with my implied consent.
If you want my business, treat me like a customer, not a scoundrel. - Posted by: sdunn2000@... Posted on: 06/05/09 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
