They do this for metering, I think -- I worked on the cable system
for a while, and when I was working on it, *everything* was proxied
through a gauntlet firewall, where the proxies have been altered to
measure traffic and assign it to individual users. Traffic to the
`free zones' is not metered -- that's handled by the proxy cache.
