The writing has been on the wall for a long time in relation to Big Brother trying to find a way to control the net.. I understand some regulations should be in place, but I think once they get their foot in the door, there will be no stopping them taking it a little bit further at their discretion.
the internet is the last FREE SPEECH forum and should stay like that. IMO
Free flow of information and knowledge is too big an equalizer to vested interests.
And nothing enables and promotes such freedom as effectively and efficiently as
the Internet. So expect powerful and ceaseless efforts to subvert such freedom
until its freedom or usefulness ceases to exist for all practical purposes.
"How much Internet access can you afford?" may become a common question,
like in mortgage, education and health care.
