[AusNOG] ISP's are the new media. We dont need TV to get the message out.

[Sean K. Finn]

Guy's I've been having some thoughts on how to deliver the message, and I think collectively, or even individually as organisations we can reach eyeballs directly.

The Internet has the reach to get a message out there, we don't need  TV or even social media on the net.


What's to stop an ISP, or any number of ISP's presenting a landing page to a customer on their first request on one day for an index.html file, with a political message from their ISP asking them to not support XYZ policy (In this case the filter).


Something as simple as that is unobtrusive, displays once and surely gets the message out there without costing a fortune.

The news paper overlords recognise the power of the media they owned.

Elections are won and lost at the whims of the Packer and Murdoch families based on print media.

It's the same now except we control the new media.

As a hosting provider I would have a damn hard time embedding a message into the first requested index.* from an IP address for the day, because at the end of the day they aren't my customers, they are my customers customers viewing the pages.

But as an ISP you have the Eyeballs, you can stick a page up in front of them, and it would be much easier to setup in a few days of concerted effort.

Hell knows, if the gov't backed down with the miners TV ads, think of what the rest of us could get done if we put it to them.


Sean.
