 nitzanPremium,VIP join:2008-02-27 kudos:2 | This is just a glimpse into the future. A future where...
You will be forced to use your ISP's TV offering. You will be forced to use your ISP's VoIP service. You will be forced to download only content your ISP profits from. You will not have a choice, nor will you be able to do anything about it when they price-gouge you (or worse).
The US is becoming a monopolized third world country when it comes to ISPs. If you think this won't affect you in the long term, you're so very wrong. -- Nitzan Kon, CEO Future Nine Corporation |

 | Your right, but I'll give you an added prediction. Your future is right around the corner. The set up is in place. Misinformation campaigns about bandwidth availability in sequence with a possible new broadband policy will put your insights in our living rooms. Tax payer subsidized deployment of a network run by theses clowns. And since it's tax payer subsidized, they will be forced into new govt requirements as well as a new taxation format, all to be passed to the consumer!

 nitzanPremium,VIP join:2008-02-27 kudos:2 | They won't need to. They'll simply "cap" you to a level your VoIP and Video over IP is unusable.
Today it's a choice between an ISP that caps or one that doesn't. In a few months it'll be a choice between an ISP that caps more or one that caps a little less. When (not if) all the ISPs implement ridiculously low caps you won't have a choice or competition to take your business to. -- Nitzan Kon, CEO Future Nine Corporation |
