Re: Ads? what ads?

Don't these people realize? Let me say it again for you: I never click on ads, I never read ads, I never even see ads. I couldn't give a rat's a-- how tailored your ads are to my interests. I run the Mozilla Firefox browser with Adblock and Filterset G Updater add-ons. The only ads I see are on the PC's of people I support who are still using IE, and I'm switching them over one by one.
And so do I but that still doesn't make it OK for ISPs to sell clickstream data.

You, myself, and people the sort that are DSLR members may not click on ads, but obviously there are thousands and millions of people that do, or there would not be a market for internet advertising outside of one's own domain (ie, I look at TigerDirects ads when I visis there).

Same thing goes with Email spam, obviously, many people are clicking those ads, perpetuating the problem of spam.
