Personally when I see a banner that has been geo targetted to me I feel like it is an invasion of privacy rather than a convenience of offering me "local" content or services but hopefully most surfers don't agree.
I guess I am not the only one that's experienced this. I got a rude email from a surfer wanting to know how I hacked him and found his location. I told him it was a trade secret and to please change his shirt as it really didn't look good on him.
