Those who lust for power have found out they can control the internet through the 'hardware'.

Saves them the trouble of trying to get new laws passed.

Kinda like the foreign hackers overloading a hub to get DNOS (denial of service). They disabled communications between the White House and the CCC (command and control center for the armed forces).

Of course, that won't happen again. But the idea is the same.

Tell me about it!

I'm a ISP provider.

I have competitor ISPs that try to set terms and conditions of how my customer's mail is routed to their customers.

These conditions aren't set across the board either. Because I can get anything through one of my various email providers; but when it comes from MY ISP....I have to crawl on my hands and knees and beg for mail to go through.

::grrrr!::
