Rejected petition Review the method that websites use to trick people into giving permission for a website to pass on details to third parties

More details

I get spam mail every day from having my e-mail address details passed to third parties. A lot of the e-mails avoid the spam filter and my inboxes for http://hotmail.co.uk, http://yahoo.co.uk, and http://gamil.co.uk are full of junk. I think that the way websites get users to give permission to allow that website to pass details onto other websites should be reviewed.

It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.
