too right, and well, *I* don't ever go to p@rn sites or anything like that, oh no, but I suspect that a fair percentage of the posters here do, and any number of sites that *all* have ways of trying to get spyware onto your system.
To the poster, *other* people *use* the internet, the "none here" poster clearly only views sites from a list of regulated safe sites. I might randomly trawl 500 sites a day looking for *something* or *nothing*, but in doing that I might hit on some interesting information that may lead me somewhere else. I'm not a monk, using the internet isn't a case of "Radioactive Material, approach with Caution", don't give us that Holier-Than-Thou cr@p about "when will people learn" (which pretty much equals, "nya nya, I'm better/smarter than you dum shmucks").
Fact : spyware is around, maybe not on large reputable sites, but when you trawl the internet, searching or messing around or *enjoying* the internet, then you will come across it... obviouly not if you are the poster of this thread, who is Perfect, and may in fact be the Second Coming I suspect, but for other lesser *normal* mortals, it's there, so simple safe precautions make sense... put suntan lotion before you go for a walk in Death Valley huh... and use anti-virus / anti-spyware before you go on the internet... simple sensible precaution ??
absolutely hilarious... or it would be, if it didn't affect the rest of the people in the free world (and by free world I obviously mean everywhere outside of the USA). what is it with you people and your politicians ? your european ancestors gave you the chance to embrace intellectual pursuits and to understand the 3 basic underpinning elements of a civilized society ie. free education, social welfare, and free medical care, and what do you do ? all you can do is focus on primal animal things that manifest in gree (capitalism and the throwing out of all 3 of the basic's of civilized society so that only the greedy rich can get ahead). it's incredible, and remember, the politicians that you have are indicitive of the intellect of your society cos *the people* vote for them. sure their are intelligent people in america, but look, you don't educate the masses, and give them good health, you end up with retarded republicans and outrageous capitilist greed such as this article is talking about leading to nothing being free or fair. i cringe everytime I hear an american say "land of the free". what is free ? free reign for the government to take anyone they want to sort-of concentration camps and call them terrorists whenever they want ? freedom to have no privacy in your homes or anywhere else ? WHAT exactly is free about american society... ??? , hopefully in 50 years the united states of Europe can take over as the dominant political force of the world . "take the power away from immature children" as it were... that is, if you don't kill us all first... sheesh... world gone to sh*t real soon now thanks to america and it's anti-freedom legislation, JUST LIKE THIS ! thankyou america... !!! (that's sarcasm by the way, for people that don't understand sarcasm).
