The cacophony of voices on all sides of this issue — and the relentless posturing — has only begun.

Mike Zaneis, senior vice president at the Interactive Advertising Bureau, said « we’ve built the functional equivalent of do-not-track. » However, those 58 companies are only a portion of the tracking industry.

The online ad industry is stepping up to the growing risk that Congress will likely look at – and possibly implement – new regulations that would impact online behavior tracking. The industry is taking the time-honored route of trying to head off regulation by offering to self-regulate.

It offers a free download that tracks advertisers’ tracking you, and presents you with your profile of interests as advertisers see it. Mine at right, based on my Web surfing and Amazon purchases, reveals an obsession with tech and biz (which is perhaps why the Google ad network preferences page is convinced I’m male).
