      I disagree. I think if the company wants to sell its customers’ data, they need to first submit to installation of cameras in every room of each member of the board of directors private domicles, live streamed ala Fishtank style on the internet. I think that’s a fair trade.

    Thanks for the reminder. I fixed these all already apparently, but didn’t remember setting PayPal shopping privacy.
