The US Federal Trade Commission has launched a "Privacy Initiative"
to investigate whether the information collected at websites (either that
affirmatively submitted by a visitor via a form or information collected
based upon a visitor's selection of pages at a site to reflect personal
interests) should be the subject of regulation by the FTC.

Gah. Just what we need, a law to do what technology can do
better. Sometime early next year community connexion will be running
an anonymizing web proxy, located on high bandwidth pipes to major
interchange points. Stay tuned.
