According to this news post, industry leaders are plotting to highjack the world wide web and setup subscrition fees to stream media and do other activities. The news post reads, “all of us–from content providers to individual users–would pay more to surf online, stream videos or even send e-mail. Industry planners are mulling new subscription plans that would further limit the online experience, establishing “platinum,” “gold” and “silver” levels of Internet access that would set limits on the number of downloads, media streams or even e-mail messages that could be sent or received.”
