FCC says it can’t force Google and Facebook to stop tracking their users

[MikeWB]

Our gov is completely bought & paid for. Corruption goes all the way to the top.

Both Google and Facebook are spending TENS of MILLIONS dollars each year on lobbying aka buying our gov. And nothing can stop them.

Never forget:



And start using alternatives to these mega-evil corporations. Install Firefox. Use Startpage.com as your search engine (it's basically an anonymous proxy to Google's search). Start using one of the other email services.

The FCC says it can't force Google and Facebook to stop tracking their users


The Federal Communications Commission said Friday that it will not seek to impose a requirement on Google, Facebook and other Internet companies that would make it harder for them to track consumers' online activities.

The announcement is a blow to privacy advocates who had petitioned the agency for stronger Internet privacy rules. But it's a win for many Silicon Valley companies whose business models rely on monetizing Internet users' personal data.

It's also the latest move in an ongoing battle to defend the agency's new net neutrality rules, which opponents warned would result in the regulation of popular Web sites and online services. By rejecting the petition, the FCC likely hopes to defuse that argument. The rules, which took effect this summer, allow the FCC to regulate only providers of Internet access, not individual Web sites, said a senior agency official.

Consumer Watchdog, an activist group, petitioned the FCC in June to support a technology that would allow consumers to signal to Web sites that they did not want to be tracked. By clicking a button in their browser settings, users would have been able to send a "do not track" message to Web site operators when they surfed the Internet.

Some Web sites have committed to honoring those requests voluntarily, but many do not. If it had succeeded, the petition could have made Do Not Track a U.S. standard.

In a sign of its growing ambitions, however, the FCC has dramatically expanded its role in combating privacy violations among communications providers. Agency officials slapped Cox Communications, the country's fourth-largest cable Internet company, with a $595,000 fine Thursday to settle charges related to a breach of consumer data. It has also gone after AT&T and a number of smaller telecom companies for similar security breaches.

Although the agency appears to be stopping short of establishing privacy rules for Web site operators, it is studying how net neutrality could allow it to set new privacy expectations for Internet providers.

Outside attempts by industry and privacy advocates to define and enforce a Do Not Track standard have been plagued by delays, as well as debates over what such a signal would require.

Privacy groups argue that Do Not Track should mean that no information is collected about a user. Online advertising groups say Do Not Track should prevent a company from serving up targeted advertisements but not impede data collection. This debate, however, has been superseded by even newer tracking technologies that Do Not Track is not designed to address.

The current Do Not Track proposal before the World Wide Web Consortium, an international Web standards body, has faced criticism from privacy advocates and leaders on Capitol Hill who say it does not do enough to protect consumers from companies that track users. In a letter to the group sent last month, Sens. Ed Markey (D-Mass.) and Al Franken (D-Minn.) and Rep. Joe Barton (R-Tex.) expressed concerns about the plan.

"Under the standard, first parties are free to continue tracking online activity even if a user activates the 'Do Not Track' signal and can share that information among its many affiliates," the lawmakers wrote.

Recommend www.duckduckgo.com instead of Startpage.  Tested Duckduckgo against Startpage, Google, Bing, Dogpile, and even the Russian Yandex, and Duckduckgo definitely produced the best results.

Try a test for yourself on 911, jews, Israhell, or some subject that is of interest to us.

Just did a very simple test.  Queried:  "Israel did 911"

DuckDuckGo puts TheInfoUnderground as the third item.  See this link:  https://duckduckgo.com/?q=israel+did+911

Yes, Duckduckgo was founded by Gabriel Weinberg.  And, although it can't be found on the internet at this time, Yankee Doodle seems to remember reading that he is from Silver Spring, Maryland, which is a very jewish close-on suburb  of Washington, DC.  In fact, it borders on DC.

But, if you look at the "team" at Duckduckgo  https://duckduckgo.com/about    you will see that it is very very international, with very few recognizable jewish names.  On the surface, it seems like these people are trying to provide the very best search engine possible, as it shows no signs of zio-influence, despite the name of the founder.  Clearly, the staffing at Duckduckgo shows, perhaps, a conscious effort to provide a search engine that is as neutral as possible.  Undoubtedly, it Weinberg wanted to, he could staff it entirely with zio-centric jews and gentiles, which would be reflected in the search results, presumably.

Startpage results are google's results. They're perfectly fine. DDG uses Bing or something.

Same exact inquiry "Israel did 911", and Duckduckgo promotes TheInfoUnderground at number three (3), while Startpage buries TheInfoUnderground at number six (6).

That seems like a good test.

That's just one search term. If you search a lot, nothing beats google's search because they crawl more than anyone. DDG/Bing simply don't crawl as much.
