Consumer advocates are asking the Feds to create a Do-Not-Track list for the Internet, that would work similarly to the Do-Not-Call list for phones. Would it work? Well it come to be? Will it burst the advertising bubble that Web 2.0 is built on? I still find it hard to believe that folks actually click on all those ads. In the wake of Google's stock hitting 700, this is certainly an interesting development and one worth following.
My $.02? If that many folks are clicking on that many ads and providing that much data, I'm not sure it would have much effect in protecting privacy, except for those who are really concerned and care to lock their personal info up tight. But then maybe that's the point.
