freedom of speech is one way to look at it
$ is another
look at who provides your internet service these days, in canada its rogers and bell ... who i believe are our biggest broadcasters
much like the oil people will controll the transition into alternative energy, broadcasters are controlling the marriage of tv and internet, which will help to stamp out the internet we know today by liscencing everything
freedom of speech is part of it, cash flow is the real reason though (internet advertising = teh future)
