I don't see a problem with a customer using what they've paid for. If the ISP advertised something, and accepted the client, the customer ought to be able to do what they want with it. Here, ISP accounts are generally limited in some way. Whether that be bytes per second, or bytes per month. I'd have no qualms about using up every last iota of my quota. I have little sympathy for ISPs overselling themselves, that's their fault. I do have sympathy for the rest of their users being overcharged to subsidise the other users (ISPs spreading the costs around, unfairly). It should be user pays, and user pays fairly. -- (This box runs FC5, my others run FC4 & FC6, in case that's important to the thread.)
