Example

Can we get an example of what shows up in web pages when under this system?

I haven't been too concerned as I have always assumed my info has been sold since day one. My ISP is also my local telco. Years ago I made the mistake of telling them the second line I had them install was for a fax line. Within a week it was blasted daily with junk faxes. I've had little doubt that all internet activity is sold in one way or another as well.

Edit: Looking through the WOW forum it looks like a few additions to the host file would nix the ads. Just the same, there is little doubt multiple parties are still getting user browsing habits and even good cookie management seems of little use when browsing is tracked at the pipe.
