I'm with the ISPs on this one. An ISP can host thousands or millions of web pages for its customers. The ISP may create its own contact to attract subscribers, but they can't control what users post or add to the forum. We like the internet for the way it lets us exchange ideas and information. Yes, there is pernicious and awful stuff on the internet, but once you start censoring this, where does it end? Should there be an internet-wide mandate? Does every ISP have to agree to eliminate specific content.

I guess I'm a web libertarian, or webertarian for short.

"The company’s $1.8 billion purchase of CNET (NSDQ: CNET) Networks could help alter that image, even as CBS has made notable strides on its own with CBS Interactive and digital acquisitions like WallStrip and Last.fm. I spoke with several digital ad agency execs about their initial impressions and, so far, it’s hard to find much downside for either company.

Take a look at European transportation patterns over the years. Gasoline there has been highly taxed; forcing people to take mass rapid transit to their weekday workplaces while saving their private vehicle usage for weekend travel.
