Declan,

I thought you might get a kick out of a page I just posted.  I've made a
list of major US companies in the spyware business as I define it (tracking
and/or collecting sensitive information, either without notice and consent
or without meaningful notice and informed consent), along with the investors
who have provided these companies with, by my count, at least $139 million
of venture funding.
