Default WSI - Corporate Spammers?

Anyone ever heard of this WSI "Internet Consultants"? They offer a franchise
where you can become a "Certified Internet Consultant" ($50,000 fee) and
then tell your customers to do things like this:

Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't that sound a lot like SPAM?

"Stealth Profiling (TM)" - WSI apparantly builds their lists by tracking the
websites their visitors go to, without telling them what they're doing.

Did you check for spyware after you visited the WSI website?
