[QUOTE="ForgottenSeer 98186, post: 1030022"] The internet is not free. It is not open. And I don't think that it should be. At the same time I think ads are a systemic disease of the www. People talk about "the internet is supposed to be open and free" as if it is some kind of entitlement without any costs. It is the same nonsense talk as "users should be able to use stuff" without consequence. If the US wants free internet as an entitlement, then stop using taxpayer dollars to bail out banks and depositors, plus wasting hundreds of billions on useless social programs. Fix existing programs that benefit all Americans such as Medicaid and Social Security. Fix education. Stop giving millions to Patrice Cullors and other Marxist extremists. [/QUOTE]
