The web is a good thing, and you'd be a fool to think it was ever going to last.

beginning of the end started when net videos were blocked based on your location, can't even watch a fucking movie trailer on that hulu shit because you are not in America... A FUCKING MOVIE TRAILER
The net is global, the content should be free to access wherever, the only exception would be the BBC where its not advert supported, but the cheek to show me a fucking advert then tell me the video is not available in my country. CUNTS the lot of em

Pardon my language, but Fuck That.
Who the hell thinks they have the right to decide what we can and cannot have access to. It'd be like going into a library and only allowing certain people to to read certain books. It makes absolutely no sense.
I'd like to find the person who came up with this idea and kick them squarely in the crotch.
Net neutral my ass.

This was always going to happen. Right from the very moment that a compelling system of communication was born on the hardware infrastructure of corporate business.
Anyway, it could be great for the print industry.

surely this won't get through, and if it does then won't a provider break the mold and provide a total access package that other providers won't be able to compete with?

This could only work if all the suppliers gave you unlimited access for one pence more than normal a month, even then I'd be annoyed at a 12 pence rise per year >:(.

Baskerville, providers seem to consolidate, bigger companies buy out smaller networks and so on. What competition are you talking about? How many providers can you choose in your area (that are not actually resellers of one service). Is the number really increasing?
Laws like those requiring monitoring traffic and storing people's emails are handcrafted for those big players who can easily afford such nonsense.
