Default Internet Service Providers to block sites like Facebook and other password protected sites.

Hello,

I would like it if Internet Service Providers would start to block websites
behind "logins and passwords".

This goes against the open nature of the internet.

Bye,
Skybuck.

This also includes other forms of hamperments like "get mobile code" and
stuff like that.

Bye,

How could you log in? And do you want anyone to buy things on your
ebay account?

I just ignore the New York Times and the Washington Post and anybody
else who wants my email address, and money, to see news.

Open internet implies open to sites that want passwords and sites that
don't.

Scientific journals should not be paywalled. Most of the research had
some public funding.

Indeed, the cost of downloading a journal paper can be up to 30 EUROS!
That is ****en outrageous. Presamably research departments in Fortune 500
corporation can afford this, but if you are a master's student, that
is like your weekly food budget.

It would still be allowed to have login and passwords, but it must have some
function.

Right now some websites might disappear beyond some kind of unnecessary
"facebook login-lock".

"Login with facebook" is spreading like a cancer.

And then there are others...

Also, for just "browsing" a website, why would you need to identify yourself
?

That suxxx.

Not an expert in this field, no further comment.
BUT...
if you want absolute security to your bank accounts, DO NOT get them
online.

If you want absolute security for your money don't even give it to a bank
