A net-neutrality activist group has uncovered plans for the demise of the free Internet by 2010 in Canada. By 2012, the group says, the trend will be global.

Bell Canada and TELUS, Canada’s two largest Internet service providers (ISPs), will begin charging per-site fees on most Internet sites, reports anonymous sources within TELUS.

“It's beyond censorship, it is killing the biggest ecosystem of free expression and freedom of speech that has ever existed,” I Power spokesperson Reese Leysen said. I Power was the first group to report on the possible changes.

Interesting article Dave.

The wireless companies are capping the amount of GB you can use in a month and be covered by your plan.

So I guess that pay-per-view would be a logical step for the landline companies.

It makes sense for the governments o the free world to take over the internet and offer it FREE to everyone. It is something that should be accessible by everyone.

This sounds like an attempt to curtail the free flow of information.

never happen. But if it does............the Internet as we know it will migrate......it isn't exactly hardwired to the current platform............with all that is available today.........hundreds of "internets" could spring up and link together in a short time. This migration would put an end to the plan mentioned in Dave's post.............

Don't forget the "big boys" would have a say in it also. The Amazon's and the other huge retail sites wouldn't stand for it.........how about Ebay? Cut access and you cut their sales................not going to happen
