Because its the same as someone shoving a bunch of fetish magazines you didnt subscribe to in your mailbox.

True but I was looking at the bigger picture; not this specific topic; after all, if they do this, what will they do next?

hahaha yeah i suppose; but waht about ppl who arnt part of the EU, them too? I dont like other ppl dictating how I ought to live my life, nor do I like junk mail, but when the choice is taken away what else is left?...think about that for a few moments, ;)

The EU decided on behalf of the comsumer that have to use download-time (and therefore their own money) to read a lot of unwanted commericials.

Thats *not* the point I was making; what I was saying was who gave the EU the right to decide 'whats best' for the rest of the world.

Its NOT the rest of the world. Just countrys that are in the EU. Assuming the governments do the will of the people then europeans want this ;) If not then take up a picket sign and some friends.
