The "Net Neutrality War" comes to Canada.

I know, they could do the same with all services!

"I don't like people using our telephone lines equally.. we should
make it so that rich people using our telephone services are charged
by the minute"

"Certain conversations should cost more than others.."

"I don't like how people walking our streets do so equally.. we should
mug people for their jewellery"

...

What's fun is that invisible routing and throttling technologies have
existed for some time now, at least in the states.  I recall one ISP
being interviewed who admitted to being able to transparently route
traffic so that the source/destination can't tell, but that they
"weren't currently using it".  Yeah, great.

I still like the idea of packet radio and phone networks more than
this interweeb thing.
