Just to cheer you all up!
F. I. F. E. (Free Internet For Everyone) sign this petition

nothing is free; somebody has to pay for it; I'd rather pay for my own and let everybody else pay for their own. why does everybody think everything can and should be free?
But the world would be so much better if this was free. How about then if every site you visit you would pay $1 a month, you can choose which sites you pay on.
when you say "free" what do you mean? that there can be an internet with no one paying for it? where is it going to come from? who's going to administer it? are they all volunteers?
I don't want a government operated "free-internet" either. That idea scares the hell out of me. They are intrusive enough

btw who is it you are petitioning here?? is there some world internet superpower who can make this happen??

After watching that link i think it is scary the power they could have over what we can and cannot do on the internet (or pay more!)....I support F.I.F.E.....but I definately need a glass of wine too!
Lol, like I always say "wine first, life second".

You bring up some valid points. I'm asking chessplayers how this "free" internet might be possible. Any ideas?

Not that I'm aware of. Maybe you can break it down for us why this can't happen.

I hate free stuff. I can never afford it.
I'd rather buy the dang thing. Seems to be cheaper that way.
