This addon [1] will let you do just that. You can configure it to tell all sites to slurp as much of your data as they want, if that's what you prefer.

"We" are giving people back control over what happens with information about them. This is widely considered a good idea, though perhaps not near you ;) The pop-up part can be automated by software if you prefer a one-size-fits-all configuration, as described above.
