Not allowing one > to view many sites ISN'T within the moral control of any company. Those who disallow you to view many sites are the sites authors!! Nothing else. Properly designed page is viewable in ANY browser. It's not bad to use flash for some "flashing" adverts, as long as you can browse the site without this. The REAL information doesn't need any extras, and should be always readable with simplest text-based browser. They don't just dumps out potential readers that don't use "the only right" OS and browser. They too - dumps out all disabled people, most importantly blind. It's not a problem for a blind to read plain text on computers (there are LOTS of solutions for this), but navigating in graphics-only manus etc. is impossible.
