A browser that doesn't store cookies and anonymizes your IP will prevent things like a Facebook tracking you across the web. The rest is an issue of contract law. No one is forcing you to use Facebook, thus it is not violating your privacy when you choose to give it your data. Perhaps public education, on how the personal data you disclose to web services can be used, and information on anonymous alternatives, would help in this situation. Whatever the solution, it should not impose arbitrary restrictions on how websites can use the data others disclose to them, or obligate a web provider to respond to letters they receive. These are Big Brother laws that will limit the availability of services by severely constraining the space of operation. I want to be able to use the web without other people's overbearing laws severely limiting the range of websites and services available.
