Who cares? Get a life dude... It's pathetic that you even care about shit like this. Hopefully something truly awful will happen to you so you can put life into perspective and stop whining about useless bullshit.

Not that I'm a big fan of Rogers. They are by no means hijacking your browser. All they are doing is a DNS redirect. If you don't like it use different DNS servers.

It's certainly not as dramatic as a death in family, but it actually is important.    For example many Rogers HSI customers have been unable to connect to their work networks through VPN.  In addition, because they automatically take you to their search page, your browser never actually receives an error message.  That means that it can't take action based on that error like taking you to a search page of YOUR choice.  Also, simply addressing the principle of the matter:  Their search page is littered with ads which means it's generating revenue for Rogers.  However, DNS services are covered by your contract with Rogers which means you're paying for the service as part of your monthly bill.  So either your bill should go down since the DNS service is being subsidized by ads or you shouldn't have to see the ads.  I hope this helps to clarify why this issue is important to many people.

Daniel... you are just as foolish as Dave and don't even realize it. Step away from your computer and put life into perspective.

By all means, since you know me so well and know where my perspective lies, tell me:  On what should I be focusing?

It's almost as if you're telling us not to have feelings or opinions on this topic.  Is that what you're telling us?

EXACTLY.  I was just about to complain to them.  Did you know that apparently you can DISABLE the search?  You can if you click the bottom somewhere, but guess what... instead of a search you get redirected to a 404 page CREATED BY ROGERS.  I use Firefox and never see those 404 pages, but now I do because they redirect the 404's to somewhere on their site.  This is complete bullsh*t and shouldn't be tolerated.  They are continually making money off us through their outrageous prices and their new ad revenue they're going to start making off us.
