They were not forced to do anything. If the parents felt it may have let to gambling type of behaviour, they should have stopped the kids from participating in such activities. Why are the suing Nintendo? I'll never understand this American mentality.
Rather funny... Guess why they are implementing PPPoE? Because they will be allowing (read: forced) other ISPs to offer ADSL service. So all companies like interlog (specfically mentioned in discussions) will be forced to use this implementation of PPPoE as well in order for Bell to keep things straight. Its actually Bell's new branch "Nexxia" which is wholesaling ADSL.
The ADSL offering by Bell Canada in Ontario and Quebec will soon be very similiar. They will soon be implementing Redbacks PPPoE which would require a Windows 95/98 or Windows NT client to "login". Currently they have quite a few linux users using their ethernet ADSL offering (Called HSE - High Speed Edition). An employee posting to an internal newsgroup said that Linux users will be out of luck and as of now/before Linux was not "officially" supported anyhow. Grrr.
Using PPP over ethernet will allow them to control many things... but it sucks from a users standpoint.

I think RedHat will do much better than you think. And quite deservingly so.
