It's on par with the services where people charge you for them to Tweet about something and they don't seem to to have been received to badly. Just another form of advertising I guess.

I have a separate account for that stuff - JonIsAWhore I believe it's called (it's been a while since I used it).

I don't mind these things. If I have friends who abuse them I unfollow them or hide their updates.

The only thing I'd like is to know that I can get the product / service the old fashioned way if I want by paying cash, and keeping my soul clean if that's what I choose to do.

Very good account name. Twitter is the pimp and the advertisers are the Johns. Google and FaceBook are pimps too.

I'm not on Twitter, but I'd immediately point out to my friends that I don't want them to spam me.
