OT:

Make your own choice on privacy. I know my brokerage, but I don't know who will acquire them and what they might want to do with information about me. Ditto insurance companies, credit card companies, and banks.

If you are comfortable having your account information publicly distributed, then great that is a perfectly acceptable choice. What I don't like is that this one is buried deep in account statements that people recycle. After July 1, financial institutions are free to distribute information hither and yon. Most people won't know that that they made a choice not to opt out. If the financial institutions had guts, they would have set this up as an opt in. Instead, they want people not to focus on the choice they are making and thereby allow their information to be distributed.
