And before you say anything
i have no idea if NTL will do this. But it is possible to check usage and control a individual modem. The equipment to do this is commercially available of the shelf . And i am sure if NTL wanted to do it they could. As to if they will well that is up to the powers that be at NTL.
What i will say is that i am willing to bet Green reps that a ISP in the UK will start doing this within 12 months. It is just down to who has the guts to do it first. But mark my words after one has done it there will be a clamor for it as they will see £ signs from it.
Please don't quote me as saying NTL are or intend to do this as i do not know.
