You do not have to sell a thing. It’s a real time automated transaction.
If you did want to sell or send communications messaging, you have a
GUI tool for insertion.

OK, I understand the concept.
It looks to me though, that most of the time we'll not have the right
to change page content. Even though it's being delivered over our medium.
So I couldn't replace Ford car ads that no one here cares about and
insert the local Napa ads that they do care about.
I can't see this as a viable thing if I can't find a way to sell local
advertising that would show up whenever someone went to MSN or Yahoo
or Google or whatever.

Blair, I feel your concern is a valid one.
This is a basic twist of the walled network e.g., AOL uses. As
within AOL's network portal and browser they would have their paid
advertisers' shown. As a dialup provider (97-2002), we did the
same thing using our own portal and custom browser of which the
user would use. Our free-based users would be locked into the
portal but our paid users would not be. If they went outside our
portal using their browser of choice, we did not control their end
destination. Our TOS spelled out these terms.
Steering a customer away from a company's website like Amazon.com
and redirecting the HTTP request through an affiliate channel, is
not good practice in my opinion. I'm not saying this is the case
in point, but there are companies like Zango, 180 Solutions and
others that do this and cost many affiliates commissions when the
software, (e.g., P2P) or bundled software is installed on the
customers machine using various methods, such as an Active-X
pop-up asking the user to install certain software.
For an example, we fight click fraud everyday that use these
methods. When a user does a search on say Google and clicks on an
affiliate link, the user is redirected to another affiliate who
would get the sale if the customer purchased the advertised item
or paid for the lead generation.

If I publish a web page, who are you to modify it before
displaying it to a user?
I'd start getting annoyed if my web page displayed differently
depending on whose network it flows thru....
I also feel that this is a bad idea in general because I think
it could end up weakening the 'safe harbor' provisions that
protect us from liability over data content. We are not
censors. Beyond the monitoring needed to assure network
integrity, we do not monitor or censor our users in any way
and we do not plan to.
IMO, we should not modify the data flowing to the user in any
way without the express, informed consent of the user. If a
user wants you to censor, modify or block pages, fine.... if
you wish to offer that service. For liability reasons, we
choose not to.

Take the old example of the Internet as a highway. You've built a
highway (your wireless network) and people (your customers) pay to drive
on it. Along the way there are billboard advertisements (web ads.)
You collect nothing from the billboards that people view. In essence,
the advertisers get a free lunch from your highway.
Adzilla basically gives you the opportunity to place your own billboards
in front of those existing billboards so that you, as the highway
operator, can receive a revenue share.
Mark, I don't mean to pick on you here and I apologize if my replies
come off as arrogant or inappropriate in any way. I appreciate your
questioning and "devil's advocate" approach. These lists are certainly
good for digging through the facts.
Peter R. sent an email for those interested in participating in a
webinar. Also, an Adzilla exec will be at WISPNOG.

The simple answer to that is "don't use that option." The ad
optimization is transparent and its basically free money. I usually
have to say it 3 times before ISPs start to understand the concept, so
in the interest of saving time...
It's free money, it's free money, and - you guessed it - it's still
free
money.

For a Network Operator, you have some incredible new tools as part
of
the package. You have a GUI interface where you can insert
messaging
DIRECT TO THE DESKTOP. This means, "Dear Customer, your payment is
7
days past due, your account will be shut off if you do not pay
within
x
hours."
I think if I tried that with my customers, I would be losing, not
gaining,
customers. The notion of inserting something into thier data is...
too
intrusive for me to consider.
