I just got this email from the IPT. Just thought I'd forward it to anyone who intends to watch tonight but hasn't signed up yet. I figured everyone already knew about this but pay special attention to the part in bold. :)

Thanks!

I just signed up for a membership. I did flinch just a bit giving my personal information though since I remembered that a major source of KT's income is reported to be the selling of mailing lists.

You gave them your real information? I have a spam-collecting email address for just such purposes.

Their other videos aren't working for me, so I fear this isn't going to work either.
 
I wouldn't give KT the right time of day, even for a free video. I'd rather pay action report.

i have made a ton of $$$ over the years in that biz as well, its free $$$. yeah i'm the bad guy and the reason people got millions of pieces of junk mail(credit card offers) sorry bout that, not email from 97 to 2004. I got out of the selling side of data then as the market dried up. I buy data from banks etc every week. The reason its so profitable is you pay once and sell it many times as possible, unlike a car lot where they have to buy a car everytime they sell one, in data just copy the file send an email and get a check over and over again.


yes this a good way to harvest data, everyone who will watch is a potential customer for 10 different billard supply stores, cue makers, manufactors. Its gonna be good data to sell again and again, thus it turns into smap, but since its opt-in the Govt cant do a thing about it. If you dont want spam and want to watch set up a onetime email account. there i'm not so bad afterall

Glad to see someone I like getting $ for it, I guess! I disagree with the principle, but I guess it generates lotsa of money for a lot of different types busiinesses...
 
Selling data/mailing lists has been around long before the computer ever was thought of. I made and sold silver, 14kt gold, and plated jewelry mail order in the early 1960's. A lot of it was sold from mailing lists that I bought and resold when they got cold. Johnnyt
 
No way in hell I'd give Kevin my e-mail or mailing address...but against my better judgement I did sign up for tonights broadcast. So, if you see "Harry Palms" from "2424 Showdatazz Blvd, Iowa City, Iowa" logged in...say HI!
