It was almost 5 years ago that we first reported that Yahoo uses web beacons to track their users’ movements across the Internet. So Yahoo’s use of web beacons is nothing new. But recently people who subscribe to Yahoo groups have started receiving Yahoo “Updates in Your Groups” email (sent from groupsupdates@yahoogroups.com), which has this little notice at the bottom: “To learn more about Yahoo!’s use of personal information, including the use of web beacons in HTML-based email, please read our Privacy Policy.”
