It's not so much the advertising, that's easily blocked. It's the, usually, unavoidable and always underhand gathering of the personal data that makes it possible.

Anyway VM is no longer the only game in town for fast BB. We can only hope that folks will vote with their feet over this, among a myriad of other grouses.

I would really like this to savagely bite VM's ass, will they never stop taking their customer base for granted.
