| NYT - Hasn't figured out that.... ...this keeps the net largely in the hands of the proletariat.
This is one of those odd conjunctures where the NYT takes a position on a subject, that is healthy for society.
Perhaps they're worried that this might lead to a decrease in the availability of virtual child porn or restrict the message of moveon.org.
If a movement surfaced to prevent the spread of anything Christian, Jewish or Conservative on the web, I'd wager American dollars that NYT would put it's full editorial weight behind it.
That having been said, I'm in complete agreement with people who see the multi-tiered web model as a profit (and more importantly power) grabbing measure by those powerful enough to do so. I could see it supported by D's or R's, depending on who tied themselves tightest to ISP dollars.
