When the Advertising Standards Authority wanted to disseminate its ruling on an
issue with the disclaimer appearing on the packaging of Reckitt Benckiser's Dettol Hand Liquid Wash, it selected two of South Africa's major newspapers, the
Sunday Times and
Rapport as its print media of choice, and Bizcommunity.com as its online medium of choice.
Meanwhile, dishonest ISPs and those cyber-squatters and spammers who drive us mad could be in for a
tougher time if new draft regulations come into force. Comment from interested parties has been invited.
