I agree that EE doesn't do shit for "protecting" people, really. Especially not in an employee situation. They just apply the same theory that the penis enlargement sites and lose weight fast programs do, but with a slight twist:
Encourage people to feel insecure and paranoid about themselves (or about their jobs).
Insurance companies do the same ("Is your house safe right now? Call XYZ Insurance and get COVERED").
It's really quite dispicable (sp?) but hey... I used to get annoyed about there being so many idiots out there. Now I just think "the more the merrier!".
As far as them doubling the price: I don't really care. If it works, fine. If not, I'll stop advertising them. I'm an "expert" at generating traffic, and they are experts at selling software. I hope (and believe) they know what they're doing.
Their spamming policy goes like this: "The more you spam, the better it is. We'll do nothing about it." I guess I'm lucky that the newsgroups I frequent have not been targetet (yet). I'd be surprised if they don't run into the RBL soon if their bulk email policy is really that loose.
That's gotta hurt even them!
