Seem this would only be valid for those that bought the static IP address from their provider, those on the dynamic IP list will find this very annoying to say the least, if they have to "opt-out" every day or two when the IP changes.
Ah, NebuAD is just a bad idea all together. I'll point out my signature again, but the funny thing is, ever since the news came out that they were "going to stop and wait for Congress", traffic to the site in the sig has dropped to almost nill as well. Gives me a warm fuzzy feeling inside that consumers feel that they have other ways at fighting back that are just as effective as the political. So I imagine that if the next news article "NebuAD going live tomorrow" then traffic will spike again to the millions of hits it was generating before.  It's one site I won't mind taking down one day when it is no longer useful.

| Investigating or Pandering? More likely congressmen are holding their hands out to, legalize a loophole into wiretap laws.
I'm sure Bush would love to stick in some way to make wiretapping without warrants legal through some new law like this. In fact they would not have to, the CIA just sets up a shell company to suck up the information under the ruse of legit business.

Retroactive immunity for the telcos has done just that, but this time der Bushler & his minions aren't 100% at fault since the Congress is now controlled by the Demublicans. And Obamapalooza, who initially was against telco immunity, has just decided that he is now for it. Meet the new boss....same as the old one. | |

Toledo, OH | Wiretap? Well hell if Congress is looking to stop NeBuAd for the wiretapping then why aren't they more active on the telco's for illegal wiring tapping? Just shows who lines who's pockets. | |

| Opt-out Based On IP Address I see a really big problem with this. (Knowing that NebuAd is not being implimented just yet, in some areas.)
What happens when the IP Address changes, either from the user changing how they connect to the modem or from the ISP in renewing the IP to the customer?
How does average Mr. and Mrs. Joe Internet User know when it happens? Usually, they don't have a clue. And unless the ISP's are planning on going all static IP's to their customers, this suggested OPt-Out scheme is also full of holes.
Those of use who visit here and those who work in the IT field will keep an ete on the IP addresses, but Joe and Jane user won't have a clue, and therefore when the IP address changes either through their actions or that of the ISP, then the NebuAd system will have them targeted, much to the average users surprise and disgust.

| NebuAd will be a reality All of our discourse is irrelevant. Congress can be bought. The ISPs will pony up the cash to move this through. It is simply a matter of how much this will cost them in political contributions. I don't see a PAC of cable customers offering up any of their money so this is a fait accompli. | |
