Comment Corporate Infestation of the Internet (Score 1) 77

This is just the latest example in the growing list of the ways corporations and big businesses are getting more and more involved in the internet. To them, everything is about money and they see the internet as just another way to make money, whether they're invading privacy or not. The only way they'll stop is if they get a serious backlash from their users and a lot of people on the internet today are too blind to even notice what's going on, much less do anything about it. So as long as the internet remains in wide usage and blind idiots use e-mail, corporations will be more than happy to litter their services with ads because the fact is, not enough people click on banner ads so they have to find alternate ways of generating cash, otherwise what are they in it for?
