that being said, if it's going to be done, it has to be done well. but there should also be an independent entity (govt or otherwise) that certifies the accuracy of the metering system the ISP is using - much like what is done with gas pumps, electric meters, water meters, etc.
I haven't seen any independent govt agency checking my electrical or water meter. Does that happen? Is this also applicable to cell phones minutes too?

Electrical and water meters you can get tests done on, mandated by law by your local PUC or Weights and Measures Dept.
Not sure who regulated cellphone minutes accuracy.
