AOL is the biggest hypocrites on this deal. But the fact is they are a large company, with many lobbyist, so they will get what they want.

in the city yesterday, there's a park just on the edge of the cbd, there was a yahoo van thing, one of those big portable things that has computers in it ... it was painted bright purple with yahoo all over it ... there was a table set up with petitions on it to send to the government to pass a bill against spam. the 'van' was also promoting some new yahoo spam filter system ...
