Re: thin line to tread

Agree completely. I will fully support any reasonable actions taken to protect children but this could spiral out of control. It is the government, who collects tax dollars for stopping these types of activities passing their responsibility to the ISP's whose function is providing Internet Service. Another "slippery slope" if this passes.

No problem. The FCC will create a new service tax called UMF (Universal Monitoring Fund). It will cost customers billions. The billions will require a huge FCC oversight department to reimburse providers.

This is just stupid. Do we expect the cell phone companies to monitor for and try to stop every drug sale that occurs over their network? Ridiculous.
