It would be "major news" if internet access had always been free and now ISPs (Internet Service Providers) were suddenly going to begin charging, but all of this is about something else. With so-called "net neutrality" removed, ISPs will simply begin charging for "premium content" just like cable companies, news outlets and other such streaming services have already been doing for quite some time. I do not know how all of this will ultimately play out, but I do suspect the days of free-range internet -- go wherever you wish and do whatever you wish -- after making the initial connection are now coming to an end. Even theme parks selling all-day passes still have additional cash registers to be encountered throughout the day.
