Ads? Not me. I never use the ISP home page because of all that crap they add on. I go right to Google and get a nice clean screen.

I have Gnash installed too. With that anytime an add starts to load on a website you just right click it and it immediately goes blank. The downside is that you get notices that your flash player is not turned on but, with dialup, videos are pretty much out anyway.

I’m content to pay a small amount to Earthlink each month. Hell I could get shed of computers period and save a lot of money yearly. but I have to have something to amuse and frustrate me in my well earned retirement and this is it.

I used to hate MS for the way they loaded all their sites with Madison Avenue fillers. I learned to stay away from other people who wanted me to have my home page at their house.

Puppy Linux realy does rock (as the kiddies of today say).

It has to do with being able to get free dial-up Internet access. The companies provide it for no-cost to you since they usually also have a lot of ads bundled with their service. The ads show up in a frame either at the top or bottom of your browser and can’t be turned off, usually.

I am a moderate who expects to pay my way in life so I don’t expect free Internet access. Sure would be nice though if we in the countryside were treated the same as those in cities. That’s my complaint about any “profit driven” industry these days.

Let me clarify. Free access if it is unethical is not good. Free and OK with everyone is a different story. The second choice though I do not expect to find. Is WIFI simply “hitchhiking” on a service which is intended for others like those who stay at hotels? If it is then someone else parked nearby and connecting is not too cool I would think.

What is the real deal here? WIFI is open to everyone? Someone has to pay don’t they?

Tks,

So, saying beggars can’t be choosers doesn’t apply to you. Unless you want the paid service for free as well.

Just because I live in a small town with no facilities does NOT make me a beggar. Someday, perhaps, telephone companies will think more of their responsibilities to people they are franchised to “serve” rather than ignore sparsely populated areas that do not provide any attractive profit for them. This is where the government comes in. By mandating that everyone be treated equally in this vital, yes vital, area of communications then perhaps our children will catch up to the rest of the industrialized world in academics. Yes folks, all you conservative know it alls, the USA is far behind the other countries of the free world, except in profits for the rich.

Someday there will be an Internet emancipation, much as Abraham Lincoln emancipated people. Free the internet.
