Reminds me of the "Early" days of AOL when they charged a base fee but added hourly charges as well. To make matters worse their so-called 800 line was Not Toll Free. My first month of service was very low as I had just started to get the hang of the ways of the World Wide Web. The second month, I was hit by a $950 AOL bill. Needless to say I switched to a local company the next day. I will be more than happy to sign the petition rather than go through that with my local companies :) Also, I can only hope if they do go through with that plan that they devise a better way to sift out junk mail as I get over 5mb of that garbage a day and I am currently with 4 ISP's (business and personal related) Deja vu "All over again x 2" ;]
