From the beekeeping group owner that I'm subscribed with:

Yahoo's privacy stuff. Scroll down and click on the link for Web beacons. What a PITA; you must opt out on EACH machine and EACH browser you use. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />

Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for dinner. Liberty is a well-armed lamb contesting the vote.

You know if people actually read the EULAs of all the popular "free" stuff on the internet (i.e. Yahoo, Google, AOHELL, WeatherBug, Online Poker sites, etc.) they wouldn't be popular. I work for GeekSquad and I always tell people about how you get "spyware/adware" and its mostly all included in the EULAs but no one reads them so they are signing a contract to infect their computers <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/notooth.gif" alt="" /> "well its free" "yes, but WHY is it free?" Some people just don't understand.... <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />
