Steve -

For my part, when a "publisher" publishes a privacy policy, and then 
creates advertising inventory which they open to an advertiser, and 
fails to contract that advertiser in such a way as to ensure the 
published privacy policy is upheld, then the publisher is as responsible 
as the advertiser for the breach.  I think your desire to put people in 
compartments is not necessarily contradictory to my assertion that this 
law has shaken the entire tree, and many things will fall out of it.

John - what exactly do you think you are guilty of?
