As your question correctly points out, no sites are addressing these elements of Fair Information Practices and are thus inadequately protecting consumer privacy. Something that we did not investigate, since it is already a foregone conclusion, is the lack of enforcement with regards to these or any other set of principles that protect privacy. Without a privacy policy, the site has fallen short in protecting the privacy of its consumers. The consumer will have no way of knowing what will be done with their information. If the consumer still chooses to release their personal information, then they will be completely at the mercy of the company's priorities and practices.
Nothing makes a fish bigger than almost being caught.
