My complaint is that doubleclick has so many dam names it takes forever to block in a router or a host file.
Anyone know anyway to get dc all in one filter?

This 'America is better for business' is utter BS - it's ended decades ago, now it's a good place for only "uncontrolled giants and monopolies, nobody else.

EU is/has been much more regulated on everything than the U.S.
Even their own wireless system is much more regulated/expensive than the U.S.... but because of regulation, it typically works better.
Except television censorship. america still reigns king in prudeness.

Canada = Hollywood North]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,19487620 Wed, 21 Nov 2007 18:35:37 EDT Also the EU doesn't like US businesses dominating in Europe http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,19487320 TKJunkMail : They also may oppose this merger on political grounds, though that won't be admitted. The EU has a history of sticking it to big US companies(like IBM, Microsoft, & Apple) because for nationalistic and competitive business reasons they don't want US companies dominating all the EU companies.

The Google/Doubleclick merger would unite 2 advertising behemoths and could potentially shut out EU businesses from this lucrative and "culture altering"(advertising does that) marketplace.

If the US FTC raises objections based on Congressional pressures, I expect the EU will see that as a green light to try and block the merger.
