US officals say plan is "another evil of communism"...they went on to defend a similar measure to for Americans called Ashcr-o-ware that would weed out terrorists (ie file sharers and pot dealers)...

Paying $10 for twice the bandwidth is nothing new. RCN, a cable company, sells an upgrade (from 1.5mbits/s to 3mbits/s) for only $10. They call it the MEGAMODEM...like changing the policy makes it mega..but whatever. RCN covers NYC, Chicago, Washington D.C., Boston, San Fran and more. Trust me when I say that 400kbps dl is worth $10 more than 200kbps.
I mean why should i (gasp!) have to leave the computer for a while? Well i could do work or something...but blah...id rather watch the dl rate..
