[NANOG] Charter Communications going to sniff traffic for advertising?

[Jake Matthews <jmatthews () cia com>]

Apparently Charter is going to packetsniff its users and use that for 
commercial purposes.

Looks like the only way to somewhat opt out is by getting a cookie set 
at the below link - which is not only a dumb idea, but still - not even 
https.

Anyones thoughts on this?
