10:41:24 — Idea: Instead of taking down specific pages which advertisers aren 19t happy with, why not keep them up sans ads?
10:44:37 — I know I 19m dreaming. But at the same time, it would stop tying content to advertisers 19 sensibilities.
13:48:49 — @jai_dit yeah. But usually the reasoning is they don 19t want their ads displayed on that page (reasonable even a little bit)
13:53:11 — @jai_dit so I know it 19s not going to change but it does bother me that one group of advertisers 19 Puritan groups controls basically the net
14:00:57 — @jai_dit yeah I suspect they 19re jumping on that as a convenient excuse so I 19m wondering what they 19d say next if someone were to actually try
14:02:05 — @jai_dit indeed. On the other hand before you could hypothetically get a new patron. These days most all is funneled thru google
14:03:23 — @jai_dit not that it 19s google 19s fault but it 19s probably just the same group of companies advertising on google that complain each time
14:05:08 — @jai_dit heh or the MPAA. but those at least are more 26public? In their policies? (cough and don 19t need to be followed by other countries)
14:07:39 — Hmmm. Apple just launched iTunes store here in the PH. Couldn 19t we buy stuff before? It was that just apps, no music?
14:09:45 — @jai_dit not for people who weren 19t affected in the first place! Not trying to be facetious, just pointing out reach is larger now
14:11:01 — @jai_dit that is, one person or group used to affect directly a state or a country; now it 19s everywhere. And that does change things
14:14:08 — @jai_dit yeah and what I 19m saying is the fact that it 19s more global is a problem in and of itself.
17:53:35 — I started 20 games on trivi.al, and so far not one person has done their turn. No fun :(
