Can a labeling system [P3] protect your privacy? Privacy from Companies7/11/2000; 1:11:13 PM "In reality, P3P technology won't do much of anything to guarantee your privacy, and you need go no further than the White House's own Web site to understand why.... I took a close look at the original White House policy when it was first unveiled in June. Translated from XML back into English, it said that the organization named "the White House" had the contact e-mail address of feedback@whitehouse.com, a phone number of 202-456-1414, ... The information would be used for administrative purposes, development and operations. But the policy only covered the Web site's home page and simply ignored the other 4,000 pages on the Web server."I called the White House and asked for the reason for the apparent disparity. Spokespeople told me that the P3P policy for the home page was merely a demonstration, and that they were doing a redesign in a few weeks and would do a better job then."The redesigned Web site, ironically, doesn't have a P3P policy at all."
