WI In the UK we didn't have lots of separate Internet Providers but just one?
For argument's sake BT or even with a far enough back POD the GPO (which used to run Britain's telephones). So by paying a Licence fee (as per Television) you could access the internet anywhere in the UK where there is a signal just by typing in your licence number? Could it work or would it just be GCHQ's fondest fantasy? I'm almost tempted to say this is ASB after Maggie but the licence system works for TV in the UK (unless you're a Murdoch and want the Beeb just to be like PBS).
Any comments?
