Making money off of dumb.

Yes, but what it means for you and I is that we gain access to an economic bracket that the dummies never will because they are too busy spending their money on things we don't have to.

It is hard to make money off of smart, because those people can do it themselves as well as question the way you do it. Only good money is making money off dumb.

It's hard earning money from smart people because you actually have to add value. However it is infinitely more rewarding, and can be more profitable.

Wow...a proper business ethic...well said!

This also sets would could be an evil precedent for the ISPs. Remember Webroot taking money from 180solutions to be de-listed from their defintion list?
Now imagine your ISP pulling the same crap. First they take money from a 180solution type (forgot their current viral name), and then they sell you the product to get rid of it!

Now I know this isn't the current intention of the ISP, but business models change daily!

The road to Hell is paved with good intentions. The HOV lane is paved with evil ones.
