Re: No surprise there.

I think COAST set themselves up for a fall by not realizing that once they let the Spyware Vendors into into their midst they would use their huge financial resources to sway the votes. No diff. then the government Special Interest Groups who claim they are working for the people, but are really only working for their own profit.

I think your idea could take off if you got the word out and
you could prove CASA's legitimacy holymama31. You would be amazed what backing is available once you prove your organization is there to help and has iron clad contracts with anyone that would be part of your group not allowing it to stray from it's mission.

If money is made available after that so be it. One can not fight the Spyware Vendors without cash. I personally would like to see MS throw their financial weight behind a group be it yours if it takes off or any Anti-Spyware, Anti-Adware. I think you would see some real progress then in fighting these losers that prey on users and their machines.
