>>Do you care to provide any justification for your failure to respect my privacy?
>I don't have to provide any justification

You don't have to. I asked if you cared to. But now that you've actively refused to take part in the growing trend of responsible and trustworthy service providing and have stated that you are not obligated to justify the reason why, I have no choice but to wonder why.

Is the reason you cannot disable this functionality because it serves another purpose? Who's purpose? Why is displaying my UT useage habits to all memebers an unavoidable consequence of using the UT? Why the secrecy?

Are my useage habits available via XML Web Services, facilitating data wharehousing? If someone is allowed to monitor what I do here without exceptions, am I allowed to monitor who is monitoring me?
