AT&T would now like your index fingers, too...

So don't be frightened when in about 15 more minutes, should you visit a Turner-connected site, you come across some annoyingly effective AT&T ads.

Why does it matter enough for me to take the time to post something about Turner (the people who bring you CNN, TBS, TNT, Adult Swim, etcetera, etcetera, etcetera) selling a "Netblock" to AT&T?

Because it is pretty significant evidence of the Internet's monstrously effective equalizing ability. You--the user of the Internet and bearer of invisible money--have, in part, forced many a big business to change their gotcha!-strategies to make you spend said invisible money.

Turner used to gamble your eyeballs on TV advertisement slots, but YOU watch what you feel like watching when you feel like watching it on your computer a lot more often now. And that's become a big enough problem that AT&T and Turner (one of the largest [monopolizers][j/k! ...wink.] in the media game) think it's worth it to gamble your eyeballs on...drumroll...

YOUR COMPUTER!!!

Yes. You are being stalked. And actually, this is what helps/hurts/excuses the lack of browner visibility in places like television--where advertising is EVERYTHING. literally. and in film, where demographics are EVERYTHING. literally....and blah blah blah blah.

BUT!

Nothing matters if your eyeballs aren't there. And ANYBODY can have an audience on the IN'NANET! You know what that means? Advertising or not--underrepresented storytelling for everybody!!!!!!

MWAHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHA!

(lols--don't mind me...i'm silly...)
