Back a bit you mentioned the free PCs. The Motley Fools have been talking about them on the radio. The free ones bring up every ad so download gets slow. Also they keep a file on what sites you visit. That file can be accessed and also sold. Ie, you have a friend with cancer so you look on the net. Later you need to buy health insurance but can't get it because you looked at a cancer site.
