Anyone who uses Gmail knows that all electronic mail is automatically scaned, and that's why Google AdSense program provides advertisements related to the content of user's e-mail.
Now, the Pudding Media company offer something more, or maybe - worse?
This company intend to monitore and to listen in consumer's phone conversations by their service of internet telephony. They offer a free calling in US and Canada, in exchanging for allowing advertising related to what people are talking about in their calls.
Their software recognizes keywords and chooses adequate adds, internet sites, news and images for showing on a consumer's screen.
Pudding's system doesn't actually records conversations, but people could be very upset because of this Big Brother factor.
"Think of us as the Google AdSense of voice," says Ariel Maislos, chief executive and co-founder (with brother Ruben) of Pudding, whose service is currently in beta testing.
