That's a pointless rule, since if the ISP follows rules #1-4, then there should be no NEED for idea #5.

The only time rule #5 would apply, is if the provider doesn't follow rules #1-4.

The CORRECT rule #5 : If the provider fails to obey the first rule, then it should be banned from selling internet service, or advertising what they sell as internet access. Because if they don't follow #1-4, then they are NOT an ISP

I believe they're referring to the Public Peering Exchange Points.

this presumes one has another provider to turn to. I only have one choice and that's comcast.
