Re: Enhances my experience how???
It doesn't show you any more adds than you see now. It just shows you ads that you would most likely be interested in. For example, browse around different sites that sell computer parts but don't goto newegg.com after a few minutes the banner ads you see on almost every website is going to show you an ad for newegg.com. Thank you for showing me a site I might have overlooked. |

Austin, TX | That is why AdBlock was invented. If they want to show me ads, then pay part of my ISP bill. |

1 edit | The point is Adblock isn't working any harder with or without NebuAd. There will be a banner in that spot no matter what. In fact with NebuAd it will be easier for Adblock to catch it. |

The POINT is NebuAd performs DPI on every packet you send and receive, stealing your privacy, and allowing third parties to sell your very personal profile to anyone with the bucks to pay for it, violating a host of computer privacy laws, wiretap laws and copyright laws in the process. You have no contractual relationship with NebuAd, no influence over their policies and procedures, no control over how they use your info, and, finally, no compensation to you for surrendering every last bit of your privacy. |
