Yep - this includes online greeting cards, articles that "click here to email to a friend" will record your info, and -well- anything that is a form honestly.
Pretty much anytime you put in anything on the web, something records it. But services like these target consumers and information exchange - those are the list herders. Also note, most online card or wallpaper sites are spammers looking for valid email addresses. Literally - a spammer is running that site and capturing those forms. /David. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Chris Richardson Sent: Tuesday, February 22, 2005 11:54 PM To: hardhats-members@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [Hardhats-members] Birthday please David; Don't answer this.
