disconnect.me is a plugin for google chrome (and chromium) that works for digg, facebook, google, twitter and yahoo. I quite like it.

Having said that, I believe it's possible for a website to construct 'like'-style buttons which do not damage your visitor's privacy: it's just that the default ones supplied by the socials do.
