>>>Somehow, the promised capability of enhancing, "the browsing experience for the consumer, the inserted advertisements are targeted at the consumer, displaying advertisements relevant to their web search and personal interests" means that I will only clutter up my web searches with more ads that I will not read or click on.
Is the ability that that "enables Internet access providers to overlay advertising banners on any page on the Internet, insert advertisements on Internet based email accounts and insert interstitials between web pages" entirely legal? Didn't someone somehow pay for the banner ad that this search engine replaces? And how does thrusting a cyber version of affinity marketing in the face of people who might be doing academic research on the internet, with no intent to buy anything, "putting the customer first"?
