Here in the UK we charge web congestion tax. If you want to go on more than just BBC.co.uk, yahoo and google, you have to pay a fee. It's cut down unneccesary web usage by nearly 20% since it's introduction. The profits are ploughed into hosting of bloated broadband content for the good of all. Sweet!
That may, of course, all be a lie.

I've actually found out my valley's going to get broadband soon. I can now indulge in pushing people over their bandwith limits.
It'll probably make me a worse designer though. Being on a 56k connection keeps it all lean...

interestingly, if you
were a shady hosting company ...you could literally increase the money in your banking account by sucking bandwidth from your customers websites during the wee hours from a computer
with an ISP blocker.but that would be really shady.
