Once upon a time, the web was fairly open and accessible. You can ramble around seldom coming across a blocked URL or password limited newsgroup. Of course things change and one thing that's very evident using the development of the world wide web is an increasing commercialism. Wherever you turn you are tracked and monitored, adverts are notably annoying occupying side bars with merchandises that you have previously looked at. I'm currently being followed every where online by adverts for leather jackets after foolishly clicking on one that looked good. It's not really astonishing, after all most people spend an awful lot of time online. We pay our invoices, organise our affairs, go shopping and even view TV and films also. This clearly means that there is a great deal of money to be made and most big firms now have extensive web sites which create an awful lot of revenue. Just like in the physical world, slowly we have found profit maximising distribute over the electronic world too. You'll see it everywhere, for instance when high street shops will bill more in certain towns and cities depending on typical income. You may think this is tough to do in an electronic world, after all aren't we all equivalent? The fact is that in some ways it's really even simpler to split up markets online than it is in the real universe. All that's necessary to do is some factor to recognize each customer and a process to relay them based on that information. What's normally done would be to target products depending on the place of the consumer. This is quite easy to do by recording and looking up the visitors IP address. By using this advice you can offer distinct products, or different prices depending on their location. Businesses generally will split up based on the country of origin at the very least but many will offer different prices on particular locations and go even farther. The world of online entertainment is even more prohibitive, well at least in the event that you employ the official sites. Most place a limitation on obtaining their content from outside their home country. This practice is growing incredibly quickly, you'll see lots of messages about - this video is not available in your nation on all the most popular global websites.
