first it was dropping everyone's speed by 2mbps ("to allow for network imporvements")
then it was dropping the free hosted web space
then it was dropping usenet ("because of child porn")
then it was throttling
then it was the download cap
now it's putting ads into our email
the slide down the slippery slope continues...
just add this new transgression to the list, which also includes web page injections, and 404 hijacks. |

Yes, I know the futility of complaining about ANYTHING to do with Rogers, but there might be therapeutic value... |

| Wasn't there a similar thing when Rogers first dropped their own webhosting in favour of Geocities or something? They just slapped users on the free, ad infested service. I think after some bitching Rogers subscribers were upgraded to ad-free Geocities accounts. -- GO LEAFS GO! |

Time for some major complaining. |
