You've got a point there, but that is a different issue altogether - I'm talking about if that would happen if the ads were actually useful ? I for example routinely block flash and large banner ads, but I generally keep most of the google ads because sometimes they actually contain something I'm interested in. So IMHO the question is if the ads can get targeted and interesting enough so people would actually watch them (or at least keep those who break their own agreements a minority). _______________________________________________ OpenMoko community mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
