How much does it cost to wiretap the Internet?
| According to a Carnegie Mellon press release, $450 per student... totaling $7 billion for all universities. They want remote access, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week; and they have a law that they are twisting into knots to suggest that it's a legal requirement. The last time we had this issue was with the phone companies; they made a fuss at the time, as well, but it ended up being settled when the government offered to pay a substantial portion of the cost. Sadly, I predict that this dispute will end the same way. |
