Good enough. Do you run AdAware, and if you do, do you never find unwanted cookies on your machine? My only point was that I shouldn't have to put up with spyware from unwanted sources. I don't invite it, so it shouldn't be legal for them to stick it on my computer. I have the same opinion about junk mail (except for local sales papers), telemarketing, and spam. I didn't ask for it, don't send it to me. If I am looking for ads, I'll look for it myself, either in the local newspaper or the internet or my telephone. Injecting spyware onto my computer is BS.

No.

True, but it sounds like you have a perfectly acceptable technological solution to the problem. Do you really need politicians involved?
