While it has it bad sides, I still think this is good news. How many sales you think you would lose if ISPs are allowed to start blocking traffic they don't like. How long b4 the moral police pressure them to block porn traffic and websites?

To keep the net open for all, we have to take the good with the bad. P2P will eventually be taken down by copyright laws but we don't need any sort of ISP filtering. That will be bad new for our industry.
