I despise pop ups with every fibre of my being....they ruin my interweb surfing they are malevelent evil nasty things..yet most of them seem to be made by amoral wankers (can I say that?) who just want you to give them your money for some load of old toss product...
Would there still be pop ups under socialism? Indeed, would there be an interweb? Would the pop ups say things like 'You are being watched' or 'Watch evil counter revolutionaries being shot! click here!' or even 'hot pics of worker women straight from the factories- with real facial hair!'
What does everyone reckon??? ;)

would we still be alive under Thatcherism?
Count yer blessings.
What's the 'interweb'? Is it anything like the internet or the world wide web?

I guess so.
His socialist education obv. mis-informed him.
Well all you need is one of many different pop-up blocker programs....and hey presto no more popups.
Do you really think Thatcher would have allowed that?
*ahem, Kathryn stop making me type such things :p*
This is a socialist serenade
I can't see the pop-ups anywhere
:p

yes, interfering with the popping-up advertising market just isn't free trade.

Nah, but pop up's interfering with my computer isn't allowing me *free* use of the net.

Blimen' heck, Dai!
You might get, ooo, the likes of Frankie Howard using that one day!
The internet would be far, far worse under socialism. In fact, everything would be.

dailegs if you dont like pop ups, and consider them an invasion of privacy, then just wait untill you find out how much spyware and adware is on your computer ;)

I've got adaware, and well aware of how many bloody spyware programs and such like are on my computer. I use it regularly, about once a week, so I don't often get shit often. Except the Ebay(xxx or ringtones) pop ups and click here to gamble, you didn't click yes, try again. I hate the shit. Nothing I can do though, i'm just a wee man.
*hats off to kathryn* ;)
