I pay AT&T for my email account... through Yahoo. Yahoo serves me up ads when I check my email on the web. Every ad gets a "right click / Adblock image".
I'm already paying them (way too much) for the service. I have ZERO reason to add to their revenue with a mis-click on an ad for something I don't even want.
They are hoping that since everyone seems to do the opposite of what Microsoft says, (buy a Zune... upgrade to Vista... embrace HD-DVD) this will make pirating MS products seem like a total newb thing to do and no one will do it.
Or... perhaps I'm thinking too much about it.

Always find a way to include Paris Hilton. Always.

The Pro-Paris lobby sees it as a validation of her celebrity.

Discussions get heated. Threads grow.
Eventually it ends up on "/." or "that other place."
Win-win for the list maker.

big business will use your government to sell it back to you.
If I buy K.I.T.T. and park it on the streets of London, do you think the car and the Big Brother cameras will argue?
