Intuit spills the beans — unintentionally

from the This-is-actually-pretty-lame dept

Ok, yesterday I said who cares about information being sent around, as long as used properly and responsibly. Today I’m saying Double-Click better get their sh*t together because what they’re doing is just plain stupid. Intuit was inadvertently sending extremely private information to Double-Click because of a friggin ad that was appearing on some of their finace sites. I don’t fault Intuit at all for this. They were using a supposedly reputable ad agency who should damn well know better.
