I was curious how publishing articles naming companies and user agents was allowed within their privacy policy. Relevant section:

We reserve the right to use the information we collect about your computer, mobile or other device (including its geographic location), which may at times be able to identify you, for any lawful business purpose

To be honest, I'm comfortable with websites publishing User Agent data. If I changed my UA to IE 5.5 for Mac and some sysadmin did a double-take and published it on her site, I wouldn't care as long as she didn't give away any personally-identifiable information like an IP address.

Sure this counts as something that would be a lawful business purpose.
