I love this sentiment! For the sake of accuracy and consistency I would
rephrase it as follows:

"A user agent or service provider MUST NOT _share_ information related
to the network interaction with any third party without prior consent of
the user."

Rationale:
Sharing of personal data should not be allowed without consent and is
not in most industrialised nations, which have EU-like data protection
frameworks in place.
