Hey, I've got an idea... let's add _another_ port that's a dummy client
that just sits there and GETs pages with banners into the bit-bucket...

Content producers win, suits lose. Free enterprise at work!

My take on this is that it's their right to advertise to us and our
right to filter it. I'm against anybody from government interfering.
Little interferences become big ones.

I do agree with Eivind's original argument that we shouldn't _advertise_
the port as a blocking / cracking tool, though. The suits and the dark
glasses are all lots bigger than we are.
