are you sure about third party clients? wtf, all my friends use aim and i know it will be impossible to convert non-techies to something where big brother isn't watching. i dont care about them i just want to use aim and not be watched.
anyway i can do this?
if you dont sign up for a players card how can they track you? it's impossible.... not everyone has one of these, which you would swipe when you sit down and buy chips. when you swipe the card all the chips given to you could be tracked at that time since to have a players card you have to give the casino your personal info in order to get comps. if you dont have a card then they have no idea who those chips went to. this is a way players could get around the rfid tracking but wouldnt get any comps. useful for those card counters;)
since i like my players card but not the rfid tracking i think i'll start carrying around my chips in tin foil in my pocket
sounds like a great idea but i cant see that ever happening because of the way email works...
basically aol would still have to receive all your mail and allow you or your new ISP to access it from them for free. unless they forwarded it for free, but then theres still the problem of sending mail from the old address. it's not really the same as telephone numbers, where they can hand it over to the new company and be done with it. seems like since the old isp owns the domain which you're receiving/sending mail, that they would have to be involved one way or another.
it certainly would be nice but i cant ever see it happening without major changes, ie federal laws. well maybe if enough members of congress have aol accounts and they keep dropping features...
