I wonder why US ISPs haven't simply gone to the $1 per kb billing system yet? It's rather obvious this is where it's heading, so why not just run a BS ad campaign and scare people with another fake bandwidth apocalypse, then reap obscene profits?
Really, internet should be considered a public utility by now (after all, you don't NEED electricity, and yet that's a public utility), and should be regulated as such.
