Opt-out of new iAds data collection

If you install iOS4, you agree to the new iAds terms and conditions automatically. These allow Apple to collect data about you interests so they can serve ads specifically targeted to you. If you want to opt-out of this, you need to visit https://oo.apple.com/ on all your devices running iOS4.

iAds are going to be there regardless. So I would rather have ads that might have some interest to me than no interest at all.
