US proposes tax-free Net

The United States has formally proposed to the World Trade Organizaton that the Internet be a tax-free, levy free zone. While this currently is a de facto reality, this proposal is going to attempt to set into stone this reality. This measure will almost certainly pass, but it is measures like these that recognize the power of the Internet--and its ability to cut the middlemen and taxes out of the picture. Cheaper, better, faster.
