"Eight months ago, content owners and Internet service providers (ISPs) agreed to the Copyright Alert System, a "six-strike" plan to reduce copyright infringement by Internet users. Under the system, ISPs will soon send educational alerts, hijack browsers, and perhaps even slow/temporarily block the Internet service of users accused of online infringement (as identified by content owners). At the time it was announced, some speculated that the proposed system might not be legal under the antitrust laws. Were they right?"
When I was taking Megabus from Boston to NYC ever other weekend they also used OpenDNS and had it so you couldn't use cam sites, youtube, flash games, etc. because the bandwidth available was able to sustain 50 or so people all watching youtube videos at once. Weirdly, they had the porn/nakedness up so high that reddit was blocked. :( If this happens, don't you think Starbucks and McDonalds and similar other wifi hotspots (airports, community wide, smaller coffee houses, etc.) will come to an agreement with the ISPs that as long as they put certain measures in place to prevent the sharing of copyrighted material, they won't have to worry about the 6 strikes?
I took them from NYC - Wash DC - Raleigh. It took 10 hours but was like 20$ because I booked early. Can't beat that price.
