Interstate jurisdiction has been applied to the internet from the earliest 
days. 
What is changing is contributions to the USF.  

“Contributions”, like for those contributing more than $25 they will give you a 
CD collection of the best of ABBA...

Could be a “love offering” like show some love for our rural bothers and 
sisters.

USF contributions.

Something changed about a year ago.  I think it's been the case for a long time 
that an interstate data connection is subject to USF.  I think what changed is 
they decided that the traffic is the determining factor rather than the 
physical connection points, and that Internet traffic must be assumed to be 
interstate.

Some people on this list have reported getting USF charges of 21% on DIA 
connections.  I haven't seen it yet here.
