I love this alleged quote at the end: > One executive at a major ISP stormed back at Highfield: > > "Relying on the customer's failure to read the small print is > not the basis for a digital content strategy." Whereas relying on the customer's failure to read the small print *is* often the basis for a profitable(*) business relationship for ISPs. (*) Small print: by "profitable", I mean "misleadingly using common words such as 'unlimited' to mean 'limited', and hoping that our paying customers won't get so pissed off with us when they learn how we've tricked them that they find cause to sue us, or leave us for someone more honest(+)." (+) Small print small print: by "someone more honest", I mean "your Mom". -- Frank Wales [EMAIL PROTECTED] - Sent via the backstage.bbc.co.uk discussion group.
