I'd say that there are two related problems, one political and one technical, and that there is no reason not to address both issues.
* Political problem: It is legal and acceptable to track people on the internet to an extreme degree. Political solution: Call your Congressperson, donate to the EFF, reframe the issue as corporate stalking, etc.
* Technical problem: It is possible to track people on the internet to an extreme degree. Technical solution: Restrict ability to collect data by using adblock, poison existing databases with reasonable but false data.
