Microsoft Backs Down
 
Is MS having problems selling your personal data it collects ? Read this story from 'EPIC'.

"As of today, Microsoft has abandoned its Hailstorm or "My Services" platform because of privacy and security risks inherent in centralized storage of personal information.  Additionally, Microsoft was unable to find partner companies that were willing to use the Hailstorm system for collecting information on consumers.  Microsoft's Hailstorm is a system of remotely accessible services that were dependent upon identification of Internet users and storage of their personal data."

Rest of story:

I am glad that they decided to do that...but they probally already gave our so called "private" information to anyone willing to give them something in return.

It seems like everyone is selling that crap now...
I just got a letter from yahoo saying that my private information is now not so private. damn yahoo
