A friend of mine told me that the current system in Portugal of broadband internet, by cable, was beyng looked at with much atention by other countries, which seems true reading this article.
Here is how it works here. We have two cable ISP's.
- Netcabo gives, per month, a limit of 10 Gigs National and 1 Gig International. Limit means what you get for your monthly fee. After that limit, you pay 2 $ each 100 Megs you download more.~ And they also don't allow VPN.
-Cabovisão gives, per month, a limit of 3 Gigs, be it national or international.
Why should having any digital content, including porn with kids, make the holder pay for it? Shouldn't instead be the persons who kidnap, lure and film these kids be the ones to be stopped?
This reminds me a case that happened in AOL a few years back. A portuguese person had his account with AOL suspended because of "raising controversial issues" in the forums. He was posting messages informing about the situation of the (then) occupied by Indonesia territory of East Timor.
This is a case where AOL has total control, or "responsibility", over the "content".
Porn with kids is the excuse for those in power, mainly governments and corporations, to increase control over the internet,
i.e what you can see, exchange, and talk in it...
