Well, i think you not understood how modern day direct marketing companies operate, even fortune 500 ones.

Every week, i receive spam fax advertisements from Dell - i'm lucky to use Winfax instead of a real fax machine, otherwise, i will be wasting 5 cents on thermal paper each time Dell sends me a spam.

Their strategy: saturate the market with their ads.

Consumers are funny creatures, a spam is only a spam when you have no wish to buy, but if you happen to be looking for a notebook, that Dell spam with the promotion code becomes a god sent gift, and you will forget all previous grievances.

The only way that PPC ads will be endangered, is by legislation.
