As we speak, some cities, including Philadelphia and San Francisco, are experimenting with free community WIMAX internet
service. Yahoo is sponsoring the San Francisco service. All you
have to do is use yahoo as your portal and homepage. My question
is, don't you think it better to have companies sponsor and pay
for the service themselves? We already get bombarded by advertisers on the Web as it is. My question is, would you be willing to get free broadband internet access if it was sponsored
by a company, and you just had to look at the logo or use their
homepage as the price of free access?
Also, why should we pay for cable access when they show nothing
but infomercials from10PM to 6AM on every channel but C-Span?
Would you be willing to get free cable tv if you had to watch just
one little commercial everytime you turned on the TV? Ron Popeil
should pay for EVERYONE'S cable with all the toxic sludge he's
dumped on cable over the years! l

Access to the Internet should be free. The Internet it self is free, we end up paying for the method of accessing it. I ask you why do we have to pay to gain access to a free information and communication device?

Free? Why? Coompanies had to pay for the towers, the equipment, the time to set it up. There is nothing free. Anyone who watches tv from 10:00 P.M. to 6:00 A.M. knows there is a lot more then infomercials on. Get your facts right before you start crying and moaning. If you have time to do that then you have a very tenuous grip on reality. Get out, get a life.

I wish it were free, along with utilities, water, and cable.
