Unclear on the concept, installment #7,423

Various advertising blogs have been linking to the website of a firm called Goodby, Silverstein & Partners, whose splash page is nothing but a disclaimer (in Flash). It reads:

The materials on this website are copyrighted and are presented exclusively for viewing by clients, prospects, and employees. Before entering the site we ask that you agree not to copy, rebroadcast, or otherwise reproduce the work displayed here.

This is followed by two buttons labeled “ACCEPT” and “DENY”.

I don’t actually know what the site contains – I’m not a client, prospect, or employee myself so I’m not allowed to look!

If you follow my link to the GSP site to see for yourself. You should know that you’ll be sending a subtle message to them via their server logs… assuming anybody there is looking at the server logs, which now that I think of it seems unlikely.
