Posted January 1, 200619 yr There I was, watching TV, when suddenly this advert comes up, saying how the internet can be a good thing or bad thing, but what hit me was the fact that it included clips from a Ku Klux Klan cross burning, a guy filming pornography and then it started to sound like those .NFO files you get with keygens saying how your personality is logged. So, I'm thinking this is going to be another bullshit documentary worrying parents even more about the net, when suddenly the AOL logo shows on the screen. rifk. http://discuss.aol.co.uk/home.aspx?id_Content=2 On the right hand side, click "Is the internet a bad thing"

January 1, 200619 yr it's called internet propaganda. The company, with their "good thing" propaganda, is telling people who do not yet know much about the internet, "Since we say the internet is good, subscribe to our services. Now, the "bad thing" propaganda, is telling current internet users that their privacy is at stake. so, by showing their logo on these commercials, they're telling internet users that they're safe as long as they use AOL. However, they are still correct at how the internet is the only place where free speech actually exists.
