Just like commercial television, Lina, and pay-per-view. And speed. And ads. What if you had to pay lots more to avoid ads, like how certain apps work? Or, if you had to pay for "premium" content, like how HBO and Showtime work? What if there was tiered pricing, and if you wanted fast connect times and fast downloads, you had to pay LOTS more money per month. We already have to watch ads when we view YouTube...what if the whole internet was like that?
How could they control what we can and can't see? This confuses me a bit...
