Death of the Internet as we know it

[steve o]

In the upcoming weeks watch for a report in Time Magazine that will
attempt to smooth over the rough edges of a diabolical plot by Bell
Canada and Telus, to begin charging per site fees on most Internet
sites. The plan is to convert the Internet into a cable-like system,
where customers sign up for specific web sites, and then pay to visit
sites beyond a cutoff point.

While I don't doubt that these companies would love to do this, I'm sure
they're aware that as soon as they do that, another free-access network
will pop up in its place.
