I think it currently just says that they can't share/sell your data without permission. My bet is that we will see some language along the lines of "Use of the system implies consent to..."
But I'm also a fan, and this entire project is one where TWDC gets the vast majority of benefit, while some guests (to varying degrees in proportion to how much they likely paid) get the rest.
Welcome new member. Out of all post i have seen so far in this thread your makes the most logical sense. You explained why so many people outside of this blog are ed off tos ee what this nexgen stuff is. Thank you for your contribution.I appreciate the insights and behind the scenes info 74 brings but this is what the heart of the matter is I think. Like I said before - if the price tag on this project was 5 billion and we were getting new rides and proper maintenance on the old ones or monorail expansion or whatever and NextGen was just part of the bill I think far fewer people would have a problem with it because the fans would have a large benefit for them and TWDC would have their benefits from NextGen. Instead Disney seems to basically be saying they're spending 2 billion worth of money customers have put into the company over the years in order to compile a bunch of data on those customers to sell off in hopes of making back that 2 billion and then some over time.
Given that scenario I think its pretty easy to see why so many people may feel like they're just being used by TWDC as opposed to being appreciated as guests spending LOTS of their hard earned money in WDW. There are actually some positives for the guest in Next Gen it seems but its definitely not being done in the interest of the guest and its easy to see how those minor positives can be overlooked when one side is getting FAR more benefit out of something in this customer/business relationship.

Andy Warhol Said it best....What I'm saying was that for the price of a ticket, every guest was entitled to the same park experience. The same access to FP, the sane ability to visit a restaurant, to get a good parade or fireworks viewing spot, etc.
Under the new system, if you opt out...no FP for you. No booking a parade spot or FP in advance.
Of course there have always been extra-cost add-ons like tours or better hotels to enhance your visit, but the floor, the minimum, remained no matter what.
This new plan changes that. A $90 ticket doesn't provide the same experience to those who opt out. FP+ does gave a cost...you have to opt in and take part in NextGen.

Quote "What's great about this country is that America started the tradition where the richest consumers buy essentially the same things as the poorest. You can be watching TV and see Coca-Cola, and you know that the President drinks Coca-Cola, Liz Taylor drinks Coca-Cola, and just think, you can drink Coca-Cola, too. A Coke is a Coke and no amount of money can get you a better Coke than the one the bum on the corner is drinking. All the Cokes are the same and all the Cokes are good. Liz Taylor knows it, the President knows it, the bum knows it, and you know it"
Disney used to be "Coca-Cola" - with next gen it is now becoming Wine... Some will have the Finest Champagne, others Vinegar....
Leaves a bitter taste in the mouth..

Fair bet she didn't believe all that nonsense and just didn't want to be tracked.
I completely agree with the "mark of the beast" sentiment. I think the odd thing to me was the federal court overruling & forcing her to wear the badge or transfer. Seems a bit harsh to impose that on a student who is basically just trying to learn.
In no way am I saying Disney is going to go to this extreme (at least I would hope not) but these types of things are already being brought up in court I guess. I try to stay as far away from the news as possible so this could have been going on for years & I probably am just living under a rock but RFID in schools attached to students? I had no idea it had already become this integrated in society. Crazy.
Tom Smith Disney Blog said:Guests staying at Walt Disney World Resort hotels, and Annual Passholders will receive a band, as well as those guests who purchase a photography package. All other guests will receive a ticket with features of touch to enter the park, touch to redeem FastPass+ and touch to pay. These guests can participate in My Disney Experience and purchase a MagicBand if they wish.

Well a certain Mr.Smith on a the Disney blog has said:
The phrasing, seems to me at least, they will tag you...you gotta love it though they want you to pay them to get, not a great product(IMHO)and get tracked to tell them that ...
Everything about this is annoying. The program is annoying, TDO is annoying, the fact that we are discussing this is annoying, the fact that I keep reading threads about it is annoying.
TDO is just draining every last drop of excitement and MAGIC from the whole experience of WDW.

Unfortunately this is a buddy buddy job in Burbank - remember if this was TDO it would of been value engineered to nothing(which in this particular case, would of been a good one)...
