:palm: Almost every relatively big website or integrated ad does it. I guess you prefer when someone exploits you unnoticed.

The issue is online advertising. Having literally over 500 "partners" data is shared with when you visit a website isn't uncommon nowadays. People have no idea.

ledtester:
I wonder how well it's working out for them and their advertisers. After all, electronic components are not impulse consumer items that you buy with disposable income.

daqq:
So, they want to be paid for showing advertisements by the advertiser? Oh the humanity!

Hey, speak for yourself!  ;D

My only gripe about octopart is that they got rid of the historical pricing graphs.  When I see things like that it's hard not to imagine that there was some pressure behind the scenes.
