    They'd better not. =^..^=
    If you'd like a serious answer to your request:
    1) demonstrate that you've read the manual
    2) demonstrate that you made some attempt to fix it.
    3) if you're going to ask about jams include the jam code.
    4) if you're going to ask about an error code include the error code.
    5) You are the person onsite. Only you can make observations.

      I'm in Germany and NOT using Facebook. However, I do not see the need giving away even more privacy to let others make profit with it. I very much agree with making this kind of nonsense an offense.

      “we delete this technical data within 90 days."
      Hahaha! Who believes this crap? One day we will have another manager tearfully apologizing for the mistakes being made.......

        I'm in England and don't use Facebook so this doesn't really affect me but my online privacy does.


        Although this is old news it gives a clear example of how low ISPs will go for a few extra bucks gained from their customers.


        Three of the UK's largest ISPs (Virgin Media, BT and TalkTalk) had decided to a trail of Phorm on their customers usually without them knowing about it.

        Phorm uses deep packet inspection to check the content of websites visited and to deliver relevant adverts to you in the future. The more searches you do all add to your Phorm profile, of which you probably know nothing about.

        The website Amazon didn't like the idea so blocked Phorm from scanning its webpages

        The European Commission has started legal action against Britain over the online advertising technology Phorm
