“Bug 84318192-b: We’ve addressed a
problem with the automatic product revision system that caused products

The author raises the question of what we will tell our kids about the Internet, if the telephone companies are successful in creating a multiple tier internet.

Keep a watch out for bills regarding this and other Internet freedom issues at the Electronic Frontier Foundation website.
