Re: ISPs = PROVIDERS, NOT NANNIES said by PToN:Do lawmakers have any idea how hard would this be..? This will just add more cost to subscribers. Plus, Internet Service Providers are PROVIDERS. It's like making the electric company liable for fried electronics due to variations on voltage, or sending my medical bill to the water service for having crappy water that got me sick.... They need to focus on things that really matter. it stems from having people in congress that have no idea about that which they are tasked to regulate and understand. most people in congress are lawyers, though there are some doctors, etc. very few (if any) are engineers or technical people. as such, they are forced to make decisions based on lobbyists, think tanks, and hearings chock full of populist rants - they have no clue about what it really entails to run an isp. they see chris hanson go after peder-asses and nigerian scammers. pedophiles are a big deal, so by association, so must nigerian scammers.
