- Personally, I'm way more offended at ISPs breaking into browser sessions and modifying the incoming HTML. That's highly offensive to me. -- (link) - Beryllium Feb 3, 09:19 [Image] 5
  - extremely offensive - bit with greasemonkey you should be able to block that crap. -- nm - decline Feb 3, 09:23 2
    - That's beside the point; they're still tampering with the incoming data. -- nm - Beryllium Feb 3, 09:24 1
      - oh, agreed. -- nm - decline Feb 3, 09:25
  - Actually, I've wanted a way for my ISP to warn me if I'm nearing my cap, but I don't know if I like this method. -- nm - Mop (213 lbs) Feb 3, 09:21 1
