Also, as any EULA shows us, it's not that hard to hide in plain sight, as most people won't read those disclosures and they'll be such a fire hose of information, that it will still require people to reveal this info and get people motivated to do anything about it, if they can. I'm not saying those aren't valuable (I think we should have them), and I agree that premature regulation can choke future growth, but I think we would need some fundamental regulation to actually prevent the worst fears. Maybe exclusivity limits on ISPs that lay the groundwork so they can recoup costs, and even collect some rent, but still allow others to compete on that groundwork. I'm sure this had all been debated ad nauseum, and there will always be some reason why any decent idea will be argued against. But I think if we can try to find some way align ISPs and customers incentives, it'd be far better than the current situation.
