Mad with ICQ

my email to ICQ:

Hi

I hope this is the right email to address my concerns about the icq ad for random chat - be a rebel.

I have been a long time icq (908868) and internet user - coming close to 12 years. I always have been an ICQ supporter, because it lets me keep in touch with my friends all over the world, and we stick to icq, despite the availablity of the other IM programs.

I was concerned when i saw the ad banner "Be a Rebel - ICQ random chat". It is inappropriate in my opinion to be using "mommy told you not to talk to strangers? Be a rebel". It has and still is good advise not to talk to strangers, especially impressionable youths. By encouraging people to "rebel" (tongue in cheek i assume), it does not promote safe internet usage.

I believe that ICQ has always been a responsible and civic member of the internet community, and this ad has upset me enough to prompt this complaint to you.

All I am asking is that, be responsible when encouraging people to try out new ICQ features.

Regards
Diane
