Some of us think it fucking sucks. The only thing that will prevent it is a change in the government so... add something to the conversation or STFU. Hey maybe some Conservative MP spoke up about this some where that we didn't hear about. That would be on topic with out threatening your devout right wing leanings.
And seriously. If you are so insecure in your politics that you have to threaten death on someone who disagrees with you maybe you should reexamine a few things. The fantastic thing about democracy is you're allowed to have your opinion, and I'm allowed to have mine.

Also, how would they measure IP traffic for Optik users when their television is essentially coming over the internet as well, are they double dipping or do they have a way to differenciate traffic?
Looking at the article too some of the statements:

Anderson said a gigabyte of data costs between one and eight cents to deliver, but some companies have proposed charging between two and 10 dollars per gigabyte downloaded above a user's data limit.
