I want to start an internet rebellion

When I log into a web site with a commercial that can not be passed by, I want to throw a brick through their window.

Is there any way to do that ?

That touches on a point that comes up whenever technology brings
new devices and services like Hulu, TiVo and YouTube into homes
How can advertising be added to the mix without annoying audiences?

Reading my 2 posts above, I just realized that maybe, only maybe, I'm in the 1%

I don't spend $ beyond paying our utilities, insurance, taxes, etc.
So advertising doesn't induce me to spend $ on goods & services.

I would be a good prospect for the HQ's transaction tax or Cain's 999... But not really.
