Re: The Battle Has Just Begun

There's a few issues at stake... not just the 'movie and music' theives, but..

- The spammers
- Free speech
- Unfiltered / unthrottled access to the Internet (yeah, I like to be able to run Skype, or even bittorrent)

ISP's want to be the network police, because then they would have the ability to throttle, snoop limit access and become the gatekeepers of the Internet while being paid for by the customer, and the Ad-driven forced content. To ISP's, this is merely another win-win for them.
- A new revenue stream
- Network control
