All,

  In that ICANN's registries and registrars are unable
or unwilling to police some of their more, shall we say,
more inquisitive Registrants and those Registrants are
sometimes not sensitive to their visitors/patrons privacy,
MS has been so kind to offer a new feature in their web
browser to provide for opt-out of tracking visitors/patrons,
blocking such unwanted tracking/stalking.
My guess is that this will not set too well with especially
Yahoo.
