Yes, this is a business, pure and simple, but it's also ridiculous to ask for money just because your light bulb is shiny. Maybe a few will, pay, most will tell you to stuff it. :) Gadi.Gee, you just discovered "fee markets"! And just since you penned this reply they've created an entire wiki entry for you to expound upon your discovery further. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_markets I can tell already that this won't be obvious enough for some, to spell it out: if they'd tell me to stuff it on my shiny bulb, they're almost guaranteed to tell me to stuff it on my QoS uses as well, unless that use is to their advantage. A free market allows for a company to attempt such ideas and fail or succeed on the idea's merit and resonance with the company's customers.
So we are in agreement. Duh. _______________________________________________ Fun and Misc security discussion for OT posts. https://linuxbox.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/funsec Note: funsec is a public and open mailing list.
