Get your wallet ready for metred billing.

Worse than that, get ready to have to buy 'bundles' of services from your ISP.

Most of them are cable companies and they know how to leverage that monopoly.

Want access to FR? Well, here at Cox we have our own great conservative forum included in our base package.

If you want our premium 'open forum' bundle it's only $12.99 more per month.

I am hearing lots of cheering—This is what I am NOT hearing and I suspect we consumers will end up paying thru the nose...Also wonder if smaller towns and rural areas will end up with huge rate increases.

Not at all sure that the consumer will end up the winner in the long run.

No you pro guys are wrong its a pain in the ass to do that and a needless waste of time and customer service people. The utility argument is bogus anyhow. In the summer I pay more for my water and electricity. The instant you start filtering at an application level you make the barrier of entry for competition entering the market much lower. Nice try - back to the way - oh the way it is now and has been since the beginning. The sky is falling the sky is falling - thank god a couple of adults are in charge

Route around the problem is called TCP/IP learn how it works
