Where do you draw the line for the "ban" though? ISPs, Google, and many of these companies collect PI for payments and associate these payments with invoices/receipts/etc. so in effect, they already have some of this info. We could ask for no analytics code on sites, but then we speculate on what code belongs to the "analytics" and what is there merely for "services". The latter would blanket everything. Besides - who's going to do the inspecting? Some inspector with his pockets full of lobbyist money? Some disinterested bureaucrat? A ban is pointless. What is really needed is for businesses to find a more effective advertising means that doesn't entail collecting so much PI.
