A shiny nickel says that right now, there is an ISP sales VP asking if the terms of service for customer lines exclude using a VPN to get in to work, and if this can be detected and used as a forced upsell.
- Spivak 7y agoI'm actually hoping that ISPs start to squeeze in this direction just because it's something that might actually garner enough anger/support to force legislators to say what exactly buying "internet service" means. Businesses aren't gonna be happy when people start expensing their internet service. So please force customers to upgrade to a $2-3x "business class" package if they want to use their internet to do any work/commercial activity.
- penagwin 7y agoUntil the ISPs decide that all freelancers and any VPN are "business use" and then the legislators don't do anything about it.
