G'day Everyone!
Alert Alert. First hop and skip over to my fellow blogger, RSG007. He's got a major post going on. Then come back for my comments:

If this type of stuff is true, then metering the Internet is like trying to apply invisible water to a pipe without not knowing if it's coming out or not. That would be like, by the time you see "invisible water damage", the damage is already done to you and the company makes a profit.
Would this be something like the postal service that wanted to ask every Internet provider to tack on a fee to every user that sent email to every other user? Yep, it is. We already pay a monthly rate to our cable companies for using the Internet every month. But if they want to make a HUGE profit and charge for every kilobyte rate per seconds, they'd suffer a massive outrage from customers. It's not only the deaf customers, but the hearing customers as well.
Let's hope that Time Warner Cable reconsiders their decision on pricing the deaf community.
Semper FI!

Yes, it is true. It had been going on for a few years. I did got involved with a program to stop from cable companies to control us once in a few years ago.
There is a program that is fighting for our freedom in internet.
It is at http://www.savetheinternet.com/
I had getting email from them. Join with them and warn them about Time Warner Cable's decision cutting the freedom of internet usage.
