I do mind the fact that people think that they have the right to introduce a business model that is tantamount to opening your mail to see what your interests are so that they can benefit financially and I have my privacy raped and my internet experience interrupted and corrupted.
Advertising companies are in deep shit, they realise that the only market left to them for significant gains id the internet. They are attempting to spread the falsehood that the internet needs paying for and that users have to accept that they can not have content without the advertisers pay for it.
Bollocks. If people want to stream high speed content to customers then let them pay for it or charge for it. If social networking is somehow costing the earth make people pay for it. Indeed if people do want content that costs then let them pay or charge to serve it because injecting adverts for cars into my webpage calls just because you know I was at the Fiat site last week is not going to do anything other than line the pockets of cunts in advertising.

That's a little sweeping, If I may make so bold.
And this idea that Ad companies are 'spreading the falsehood' about the payment model for the internet simply isn't true.
That's more at the door of shoddy ISPs (BT for instance).
Anyway, just saying.

Because you are wrong. The targeted advertising model is being whored around the world by many a firm and content is the carrot.
BT are not pushing this much at all. In fact BT are saying very little on the matter and censoring those that do. BT want it all to go away so they can continue it in calm and quiet.
You look at any firm working in the online advertising sector. Any single one of them that has comment on behavioural advertising is claiming that the internet cannot supply the content that the consumer 'demands' ( no studies as usual ) without advertisers pay for it. Most of us don't need or want it so a better model is make the people that want it pay for it, leave the rest of us alone and fuck the vile, blood-sucking, parasitical leeching advertising cunts right in the back bottom.
For the 8 hours a day you spend in your office finding ways to steal money from people you are a cunt. After that I'd take you for a beer all day and talk about 3d modelling ;)

But, don't worry - it's ok to be wrong. I won't tell.
I love the simple-minded argument that says Advertising 'steals' money from people.
You, me - every fucker buys stuff, there's no gun to anyone's head. If you're (not you personally) too weak-minded as to be influenced into spending money on something you don't need, then - you know what - you get no sympathy here, sonny. Spend away.

It's not actually the advertising leeches that I have issue with. It's the fact that this model ( layer 7 deep packet inspection ) is illegal under at least 5 separate areas of UK and EU law. It will be devastating to webmasters who are told they have given implied consent for anyone to harvest their copyrighted data so that visitors to their sites can later be served adverts for their competitors.
I've not seen an advert on the net in over 3 years and nobody has to but that is of little solace if people are allowed to intercept my communication for nothing other than financial gain which has no benefit to me. If I want to make a purchase I'll research it and still see no adverts. There is no need for my ISP or any advertiser to have any involvement in this other than my ISP doing what it is contractually obliged to do by providing gateway services.
There are legal ways to do this, they must use an opt-in only model and gain written consent from the publishers of all data that they harvest and that means both me and the content provider. This is what the law demands today but is being ignored because after all, opt-in is the death of any advertising model.
The upshot of it is that nobody, not even my ISP should be allowed to make a financial gain from my data. BT's model allows for opt-out ( despite EU commission rulings that anything of this nature must be opt in ) yet that does not change the fact that your data is still intercepted, parsed and then discarded when it knows you have opted out. The interception has already happened and the law has been broken.
Nobody in their right mind, whatever their job should support that. Until the law is changed you can't allow people to break it just because nobody gets killed and everyone except the consumer wins.

I was merely trying to point out that whilst the ad industry certainly has it's more disreputable individuals, that does not necessarily apply to all of us.

Good morning miss

it's a type of bedding — a bed covering composed of a quilt top, a layer of batting, and a layer of fabric for backing, generally combined using the technique of quilting. Another technique for securing the quilt layers is tying. Tying refers to the technique of using thread, yarn or ribbon to pass through all three layers of the quilt at regular intervals. These "ties" hold the layers together during use and especially when the quilt is washed. This method is easier and more forgiving if the quilt is made by hand. Tied quilts are called, depending on the regional area, "lap", "comfort" or "comforter", among other names. Many quilts are made with decorative designs; some quilts are not used as bed covering at all, but are rather made to be hung on a wall or otherwise displayed. In British English, quilt is another way of saying duvet, wadding is another way of saying batting, and calico refers to muslin rather than to a fabric with a printed pattern on it, but that's not important right now.
