Re: Double-Talk

Amen and Amen!

If the Telecommunications companies want to get greedy, then bury them in their corporate greed by filing mass lawsuits and winning them all.

Get SPAM you didn't want? SUE. Stupid ads appearing on your screen you don't want to see? SUE. Companies like Microsoft and so on using YOUR bandwidth to phone home/bug fix etc? SUE!!!

And, the lawsuits will be easy wins because when paying by the byte, it will be automatic to prove damages. Sue, sue sue.

And then this stupidity will die before it can get started.
