i hate when people keep moving the argument around. i'd pay extra. i
already do (the only ISDN line in my CO is mine and i pay for regional
calling).
take russ saying he objects to anonymous spammers. i'm on a dial-up but it
doesn't have ``anonymous'' spammers and they persue spammers that use their
service aggressively. but i didn't hear anyone say ``I'll fix anonymous
spammers.'' i hear folks saying ``Let's screw technically sophisticated
users with particular desires that don't connect to my ISP''.
