Free reverse telephone, searches for numbers in Australia:, no longer free.

I reported this site back on the the 5th of July.

Guess what? no longer free.

Unlimited for $10.00 Subscriptions allow you to search our full database far more cheaply than purchasing individual pages of results. Subscribe for $10.00/month for unlimited searches!

100 for $3.00 Subscribe for $3.00/month for 100 searches ? that's only $0.03/search.

10 for $2.00 If you're a more casual user, or just interested in trying out our service, you can purchase a premium key good for ten searches/month. If you cancel your subscription, you can still use whatever searches you have remaining.

1 for $1.00 Just want one results page? Enter the number you're looking for in the search box above and purchase the results for $1.00.

:-) Oh well, I would have to be desperate to get a number to subscribe to that.

Cheers Don...

Noticed this the other day.

If you gave a donation early in the piece, it seems, then you still get it free.

It was predictable. I was in fact waiting for it to occur and was wondering how long it would take before we saw commercialism raise its ugly head and restrictiveness become the rule as the presiding paradigmatic representation. It assuredly bucks against the pure phreaker mindset, as was originally out-pictured in years gone by. In our so-called progressive world, I am afraid money speaks the loudest and the longest.

I think as time progresses you'll see the bulk of that which was free in the past turning the commercial route. Even some of the previously free online content on the daily rag sites are heading to the commercial trend.

There are a plethora of other sites available of a commercial nature online, it is therefore disappointing that we could not have at least one non-commercial reverse lookup site and especially such a one dedicated to Australian telephone numbers. Than again, as representative of the spirit conveyed in some of my previous posts, what indeed would one expect of humans other than a commercialised life mentality in a considerably over-the-top precipitant.

At the very least am able to say that I made some use of it in the early stages, in that minuscule period in time when it was free and less restrictive than it eventually became in its development.

My advice to anyone and everyone is, take full advantage of anything you can that is currently free because the push to commercialism is on in full force and is only going to become the deemed norm of the human experience in a contrived human society where dumbed-down thinking is at play.

It is all very well to bespeak of the cost to provide this, that or the other service, but few genuinely look for alternatives whereby a free service can be offered and continued. Also, the presiding thought nowadays seems to be that the people have bottomless pockets from which they can extract money at any time and in any quantity.

Another example is Mailwasher the latest version is a regular period payment unlike the old versions of a one off payment.

Life in a monetary-based and supremely dependent societal construct is a bitch, to put it mildly.

And just consider some of the hardware examples, like the chipped printer cartridges that expire at a predetermined date even though their is still ink and sometimes plenty of ink left in the darn cartridge. That's another and well defined rip-off, notwithstanding the more or less implausible argument of the manufacturers that with the age of the ink comes a potential deterioration in printing quality. In the final analysis, control IMHO should be left in the hands of the end-user and they shouldn't be dictated to by those overt commercial interests who would decide on our behalf.

unlike the old versions of a one off payment.

I was a big fan of mailwasher and one of their first customers. I gave them one email address to contact me on: mailwasher_AT snipped-for-privacy@dontronics.com. They were the only company given that email address to contact me on.

After receiving one spam and one virus through this email address to me, I dumped them. Mind you that was about 8 years ago. They explained the first one, but never ever got back to me on the second one.

And if you want to know how to simply get rid of Email Spam:

Like once upon a time you could walk into the local Post Office and browse freely (in both senses) through a hard-copy electoral roll.

They are a bit slow on the update at the AEC, my local member won in a landslide (as usual) but according to the aec I don't have a local member.

Intrstingly, that page states "The roll is not available for sale in any format". Maybe the key words are "for sale", as local pollies get their state roll supplied FOC on CD.

free.

If it's available to view electronically at their offices, I wonder why they couldn't put it on the web?

Thats not the electoral roll, thats the election result.

The AEC only updates the final election result when the ballot is declared and that wont happen for about a week now with most of the seats, they have to allow a couple of weeks for all the postal ballots to have come in.

And even then the result can be legally disputed at times too.

They can, but choose not to.

There has been considerable controversy about having the date online where it can be used to chase up where people currently are etc.

75% of the about 90% vote counted so far. And they still won't put him over the line, only an 18th century though and it won't be dragged kicking and screaming into the 19th.

I don't understand why, if anyone can walk into an AEC office and get the information anyway.

What percentage of postal votes does your electorate have? All the pre-poll out of area, postal, etc votes have until Sept 3rd to be received.

Because you have to manually transcribe it there. Online, you could automate it and pull the lot for junk mailing, etc.
