Re: The real question is...

I suspect that this will work as effectively as the DoNotCall.gov list for me..

1. Existing customers will see a rate increase...unless they renew their ToS, which will include Opt-In
2. New customers will have Opt-In written as part of their ToS when they sign up for service.
3. Any 'new' feature or change in service will automatically require you to 'opt in'.

Last time I saw something similar to this opt/out was for cable in Canada through Cogeco back in 1999. You were 'given' bonus channels for free for 3 months. If you didn't call to opt out, you were automatically billed extra for the new channels after the 3 months were up. Government squashed it quickly.
