US Congress: Do Not Track - online advertising bill introduced

There's a new bill that proposes to create guidelines and enforcement for a DO NOT TRACK system for online advertising.

The bill is the first in this session to specifically tackle the creation of a do-not-track system, according to a spokesman for Ms. Speier. In December, the FTC issued a report recommending the creation of a do-not-track system and suggested that lawmakers use the report as a template for legislation.

Since the FTCs recommendation, Mozilla Corp. has said it will include a do-not-track feature in an upcoming version of its Firefox Web browser. But so far, no tracking companies have publicly stated that they will participate in a do-not-track system.

Very interesting... But there is always a way around it.

I think this is wrong concept.

politicians *sigh* :(

Similar to the DO NOT CALL list by the FTC against telemarketers

Google's gotten ahead of this with their settings mod.
