Acceptable? Perhaps not. You can always switch to another ISP. Of course, if all ISPs are doing the same thing, then you can either accept it, or go without Internet access. Nobody is forcing you to use the Internet. > Please sign up here for the Patriot Service Plan comrade. The Internet is not a government service. It is not a constitutional right, either. You are paying a private company to allow them to let you access their network. They can impose whatever terms they like on that. You can accept them, or not. -- Ben Scott <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | The opinions expressed in this message are those of the author and do | | not represent the views or policy of any other person or organization. | | All information is provided without warranty of any kind. | _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Web Interface: http://intm-dl.sparklist.com/cgi-bin/lyris.pl?enter=exchange&text_mode=&lang=english To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
