I just got off the phone with Sedo. Twice I was patched through to the wrong voice mail while trying to reach Monica Abraham. I spoke with Stephanie who could not take the heat of my message to Sedo.

In a nutshell:

Stephanie told me that the feature cannot be turned off per account, that it has been a decision by the project management to turn the feature on after "lots of testing".

I told Stephanie that I want my data deleted from their database upon closure of my Sedo account. She said this won't happen as "federal regulations" require them to keep it.

This is bullshit.

Sedo, my goal from now on will be to expose your hypocrisy and complete disregard to your customers. I will blog, publish and notify the media of the ways you have chosen to expose our data to third parties and the way that you insist to keep our data hostage in your database.

I will lobby for others to leave your service. There are plenty of alternatives.

Edit: Finally made it to Miss Monica's voicemail. Monica, I hope to hear back from you - please give me a call. It's important to resolve this issue before it escalates further.
