Yahoo boosts user privacy; Google takes a privacy hit

MP3 - iTunes

Internet company Yahoo says it will anonymize some user data within 90 days of its collection. That includes information on the sites users visit, and advertisements they click on.

Meanwhile the Ponemon Institute, a research group that focuses on privacy issues, hasreleased its annual Most Trusted Companies survey. Google fell from its top 20 perch, partly because consumers expressed growing unease with Google's data collection and retention practices.

Guests: Jay Cline, Minnesota Privacy Consultants; Larry Ponemon, Ponemon Institute

Yes, sorry about that. My fault. The MP3 link is fixed so it will play the correct segment now.
