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

So, if your telco diverted you to a political message on your first phone
call of the day, you wouldn't consider that a breach of supply?

Banners on your own sites (news pages, billing pages, webmail pages etc) are
one thing but to divert traffic for political purposes is not quite in the
spirit of opposition... and arguable that a corollary to this is that all
potential rapists should be raped?

Not my preferred campaign method, no. And I remain opposed...
