No, I'm sure they have lots of reasons.. Are you saying Google has no reason "but to be a good guy to you?" .. hahahaha...

You keep ignoring the facts that ISP's aren't doing this, and the ones that do get flamed quickly, sued, ect.. "which is how it should happen".... If you add in regulation for this, more WILL follow.

And if they want to pay entry fee's, let them.. If nobody pays, they go out of business. If it works, Companies grow.

How it should work... oh, snap.
