Why is an ISP more "worthy" or PI space than a large enterprise.  In 
fact, ISPs are responsible for far, far more table pollution than 
enterprises.  Pot-Kettle-Black?

Besides that, please remember the Internet is a business, not a 
research tool or a toy for those with enable.  Business have business 
needs.  If the Internet cannot satisfy them, then the Internet will not 
be paid for its services.  This ain't 1999 no more, you need your 
customers.
