Fair Eagle taking over the world? ISPs being compromised or just cheap? - benanderson.net: "I've noticed something recently; there has been an overwhelming number of Fair Eagle ads showing up all over the place. This occurs on my Mac and my PC and after investigating the issue further I've found that the ads are being appended to all .com domain HTML requests. It appears that this is the result of a proof of concept from an advertising agency which will append the JavaScript for the advertising to every .com site's HTML.
The code is on every website from penny-arcade to apple.com, but it doesn't always show the ads."
