I imaging that
NetZero, since it monitors surfing patterns, wouldn't do much interesting
for me, since I spend most of my time in terminal windows.
what does "monitors surfing patterns" have to do with spending time
"in terminal windows"? Do you surf using lynx or something?
NetZero's advertises (or at least used to) with overlay windows of ads
based on the things the users is browsing in their web browser.
If I were to be using NetZero for what I normally do, which is sit inside
of a terminal window, running ssh to somewhere, it wouldn't gather much
information to target the ads. It's not that I don't browse the web, I
just spend a large majority of my time "online" not doing so.
The can't target their ads based on the contents of my emails, since I ssh
into the email machine, and run 'mutt'.
