Web bugs may break state law
Another snippet (with a pointer to an article) I ran across this afternoon on Boing Boing is one regarding how Intuit and H&R Block intentionally placed web "bugs" in their online tax preparation software this year "to monitor taxpayers' online behavior." Not only does that sound creepy, but it is probably a violation of California state law. The referenced article is written by David Lazarus at the San Francisco Chronicle.
