Finch: Love how this thread has turned into something about Paul Henry haha.
Last week Dotcoms Bodyguard/right hand man (His name escapes me right now) was going to appear on TPHS but Dotcom got the lawyers involved to stop him from talking.
I quite liked KDC just from what I saw on TV/his personality however now it sounds like he is hiding something (Although he probably was all along!!)
FireEngine:mattwnz: To me the campaign was somewhat contradictory. They implied having caps on plans are third world, yet they do sell plans with caps on them. Sure they also had a plan without caps, but the rest didn't. If they are saying their service is 1st world, then all the plans shouldn't have caps, otherwise the are saying that some of their plans are third world. At least that is my logic to it. Glad it is gone.
I think the logic was "not having an uncapped choice, is 3rd world"
Klipspringer:mattwnz:Amosnz: I quite like Paul Henry and the new show too, but I'm glad Janika is there too.
He is probably the best interviewer on TV. He does sometimes get a bit ranty though.
Paul Henry is a great, he calls a spade a spade, and I think thats what most people like about him.
KiwiNZ: I still believe that Kim Dotcom is taking the mickey out of NZ

Something I've said since day one!
I wouldn't trust him as far as I could bowl him.

OK, although there was already uncapped choices with other ISPs, as some other ISps do already offer uncapped plans. So if those didn't exist, I could see the logic in the advertising.

freitasm: Orcon wraps up successful Kim Dotcom campaign
Orcon today announced its successful campaign featuring Kim Dotcom is coming to an end ...
Sideface
Yabanize: If this is true (and I believe it is) then he's pretty well within his right to put a gagging order on him.

It's actually about the ability for the other party to have their said, it's also funny having Kim Dotcom talking about confidentiality and then disclosing normally confidential salary information.
It boils down to the two way street, it's not unreasonable for the accused to be given a chance to reply and counter accusations made about them, it's of course up to the media/other mediums if they want to carry that reply.
This was (if I recall correctly) brought up in the Herald in the last couple of days, for all the statements he's made about 'Internet Freedoms' the move to obtain a gag order just feels like a complete U-turn, perhaps even a 'do as I say, not as I do' thing.
As for the Orcon/Dotcom ads (and to be honest, the Orcon/Billshock ad as well), the only purpose they served me was a reminder that I hadn't hit fast forward yet!

Yep - our unlimited plan pre-dated this campaign by over a year...not all campaigns launch new-to-market product, many relaunch with new features as ours did.
Edit: "new" features not "existing" doh!
