Corporations do have the legal right to track is, though it hasn't anything to do with the first amendment. And that's a problem. We need privacy laws and / or amendments to state and federal constitutions. I suspect that once the issues of GLBT marriage rights and Marihuana legalization are thoroughly addressed, the next major progressive push will be privacy.

And progressive states will lead the way, once again.

Another example why states' rights are becoming a MAJOR liberal / democrat / progressive platform.
