Re: Complete Per Byte Billing.

That's a pretty good example RARPSL.

For the dumbass ISP CEOs out there, to simplify:

It costs X to run cable to someone's house and keep it functional (like the gas and electric companies currently do). There's your "base" cost. You want per-byte billing, add it to X while recognizing X is NOT equal to whatever bullshit base you think your service is worth (which is something stupid like X+$30) because it benefits your salary and your shareholders.

I don't see that happening unfortunately.

ISPs are ready to start at X+Y (where Y=whatever ISPs think they can screw you out of)
