Boycott Virgin

[MrZombay]

Apparently they're going to try to make websites who don't advertize them slower so we won't visit them. Or something to that effect.

Boycott virgins? Those are where all our best weekend stories come from though.

Can't see the video; my player isn't working.

Is this some other threat by a big telecom to "regulate" internet traffic?

 

[MrZombay]

I think so, I believe Virgin's ISP is threatning to only give fast access to websites that will advertize for them. The concern is other companies will follow so it will basically turn the internet into Television. Regulated mass media which doesn't tell the whole story due to possible bad PR.
