Comment Re:And this is partly why I refused eBilling (Score 1) 259

I'm sure Demon hit the 100,000 user mark some time ago, so 3,600 is a very small amount of people. Would be nice to get an email from Demon to confirm if you are on the list or not and force password changes for everyone who got compromised. But keeping on track... I also opted out of eBilling as I wanted a paper bill sent to me each month.

Back in the day, Demon Internet in the UK would check for open relays and port block if one was found. The only reason I know this is the numerous entries in my Linux server at the time. I did speak to one of the tech guys who gave me a run down on what they did. I've no problems with an ISP monitoring and protecting itself.

and I'm more than willing to pay a little more to farmers who take additional care to help protect the country's wildlife.

Your just paying the supermarkets. The farmer gets a fraction of what you pay and most farmers have to rent the land they farm, so thats more cost. Add to this the cost of running your goods as organic, only to have the supermarkets spray them (fruit and veg, not meat... I dont think.) which in my mind defeats the object.

I cant help it, I'm married to a farmers daughter. (cue dirty jokes) :)
