I think most all "providers" charge too much for carefully arranged electrons that come and go with the wind.

Internet speed control can eventually be very oppressive.

I am kind of favoring move to much less Internet.

I favor Belize.

Like it or not, this is America. People can charge but others can lower to get business

Even here....there are ads and upgrades needed to keep the site running

we already pay higher prices if the service provides faster speeds

as for more websites charging, great, maybe people will interact more and stay 'connected' less,,

I'm much less concerned about various sites deciding to charge, than I am about the hard push by the GOP to allow companies to list your search results according to who bribes them and by how much. So when you are shopping for something, and search for "highest rated whatever," your net supplier will see to it that you are told that the best product is the one who just paid them the highest advertising dollar.
