I thought NebuAD disappeared. They were put in a shit hole when all the ISPs started pulling out when the huge controversy started.
They said they were stopping -- but should you believe them?

NebuAd said that it was pulling back to a more traditional ad model, but it also earlier said that it required its ISP partners to provide "robust" notification to users prior to installing its hardware. (Out of about 20 ISPs that I know actually used NebuAd, I can't find any evidence that one did anything that would reasonably inform users -- most buried the facts into FAQs and policies that are -- if ever -- only read rarely after sign-up.)
