You do realise that one of the Beeb's needs for increasing the license fee is for the experimental use of the WWW to show T.V. Programmes and that when they have succeeded in using this modern technology they then propose to have the law changed so that anyone with a computer surfing the net will have to have a licence! How are they going to get the rest of the world to pay for what is supposed to be free? If they want/need to do this shouldn't they make it pay as you go so that those of us that don't want this service do not get penalised for it?

I really do think this is one time the human rights thingy could be of use, british governments 'independent' mouthpiece censors citizens freedom to surf!
