While I'm not a fan of taking away things, in my mind having a fixed limit is better than having an 'Unlimited' plan, but having an unknown 'fair usage policy', for which there is no official policy.

For the love of jebus, ignore the Daily/Sunday Express just as much as the Daily/Sunday Mail. They are terrible, borderline-racist, reactionary publications with a fixation on Big Brother (Orwell, not the terribe reality show) and 'foreign types stealing our jobs'.

There's a site dedicated to the terrible nature of these publications, which is well worth a read, if only for a giggle.

But the launch was cancelled hours ago due to a hydrogen leak. Lucky?

First off, because it drives me nuts, it is "couldn't care less". (Cue picking on grammar errors in this post. Maybe I'll drop a couple in intentionally!)

Secondly there is adblock (and flashblock) for Safari in the form or SafariBlock, or if you don't care for Input Managers there's always things like GlimmerBlocker which is a local HTTP Proxy which will block ads (and flash and do other fancy things) across the whole system and not just one browser.
