Except search engine forms.

I'm reminded of the marriage scene in Flash Gordon, where Emperor Ming marries Dale.

Zogi, the High Priest: Do you, Ming the Merciless, Ruler of the Universe, take this web user to be your valued customer of the hour?
The Emperor Ming: Of the hour, yes.
Zogi, the High Priest: Do you promise to use her as you will?
The Emperor Ming: Certainly!
Zogi, the High Priest: Not to harvest data from her web forms and search requests?
[Ming glares at Zogi]
Zogi, the High Priest: Uh, until such time as you see commercial value in doing so.
The Emperor Ming: I do.
Trusted Customer: Did I opt in to this?
