Ice Fyre.

You have hit the nail on the head. Many more people need to know about this.

But never fear, the cashflow problem is all BT's.

You're anonymous, aren't you? And Webwise is 'free'.

No one knows your browsing history. So you couldn't possibly get an itemised invoice linked to your UID.

BT assured you in writing that would be impossible.

But Pete, I'm itching to invoice the 3 stooges for my intellectual property. So much so that i'll set up a web site to do it.

Only thing is, I will need to keep the invoice down because I will pursue it in the small claims court. Nice and easy and doesn't cost very much.

Cost's the ISP's plenty though to defend.
