Just have them send the data they collect to the NSA just like the phone companies do. They do it legally why can't NebuAD  |

How do we know that they are not implementing this now and just not telling people about it? Not just the ISPs listed above but other such as Verizon or Charter etc.? As and end user I have no way (that I know of) for me to know if my packets are getting read like that. |

Congress is concerned at the moment with appearing to be interested in voters due to upcoming elections. In reality, if NebuAd and their supporters pay enough, they will be allowd to go ahead. Congress is interested in business and money. |

NSA most likely has a sniffer on most ISP's at the major nodes, and can pick off whatever traffic they want. -- Canada = Hollywood North |

I don't know why they are giving NebuAd so much shit when there are tons of other services, and our government doing the same thing.
NebuAd should grill congress if he has any balls to do it. |

They want the information turned over to them. Nothing will come up this. All this information will be collected...

Yah, NebuAD wants to know everything about us but what do you want to bet that CEO Bob Dykes hides behind a private phone number. Sure, NebuAD has corporate contact info listed but I'd bet he has a staff of people screening his calls.
In my opinion, NebuAD is just another scumware variant. These guys make used car salesmen look like boy scouts! |

So we can expect congress to Tax the On-line Ad industry to get their cut and let the industry keep it's shady business practices. Nothing gets done in a system that hardly ever works to provide something positive to the end users without the "fine-print". |

No, it's worse than being overrun by Republicans. They are overrun by Democrats who don't have the spine enough to stand up for their principals. At least with Republicans you could at least claim that this is stuff they really believe in.
