The CRTC Just Decided to Let Your Internet
Service Provider Put a Meter on the Internet!
by Open Media.ca
Bell Canada and other big telecom companies can now freely impose
usage-based billing on independent Internet Service Providers (indie
ISPs) and YOU. Big Telecom companies are obviously trying to gouge
consumers, control the Internet market, and ensure that consumers
continue to subscribe to their television services.
This means we're looking at a future where ISPs will charge per byte,
the way they do with smart phones. If we allow this to happen Canadians
will have no choice but to pay more for less Internet.
This will crush innovative services, Canada's digital competitiveness, and your wallet.
We need to stand up for the Internet.
