Sorry for joining in late, but this seemed like a nice discussion. One thing, i found significant is: "The Mozilla Foundation and its Commercial arm, the Mozilla Corporation, has allowed and endorsed Ad Block Plus, a plug-in that blocks advertisement on web sites and also prevents site owners from blocking people using it." Notice the part "that prevents site owners from blocking people that use it". I think thats fare, It takes money to put up a website and i want to make money from it. If u dont like the way i advertise, well then its not possible for me to offer you content. As for the tv != webpage, totally support it. I think the analogy in this case is, i want to watch the channel but when an ad comes i want to blacken the screen. Develop something like that and then lets see how the tv channels react. Cant imagine their reaction to be too different. Moreover nothing prevents u from changing the wesbite if u dont like the ads. > ??? > > -- > Regards, > Dinesh A.
