OT: Privacy ? Hide from Microsoft

['nuther Bob]

Read this article about MS tracking newsgroup content:
http://zdnet.com.com/2100-1104_2-5065460.html

You might want to note this:
"With Usenet there is one that says "Leave my messages alone," and
we respect that. We will not store your messages if you put that
in them." He's talking about x-no-archive. You may wish to learn
more about it. Maybe they will ignore you, maybe not.

Also, this advice from the same goof doing the tracking for MS:
"And that may mean keeping multiple IDs and e-mail addresses.
Ultimately we may have to fragment our identities."

Bob er... Sammy by tomorrow :-)
