Hardly.  The purpose of advertising is to convince you to make a choice.  With
the InterNIC, you have no choice.  It's the only point of contact for 
non-military users to register IP addresses, domain names, etc.  This stuff
was formerly provided by nic.ddn.mil, but now as of the April 1st cutover,
they are strictly MIL-only.

So instead of advertising, consider it to be press releases.
