Once they start offering Internet news/email/USENET feeds (one way) by
DSS-type dish antenna from satellite, it'll be mighty hard to figure out
who's receiving the data. They could probably easily provide 10 megabits per
second, which I assume would be more than enough for what's needed.
(BTW, for a few years a company called "Planet Connect" has been providing
FIDOnet data feeds, although they use the older-style, large antenna
systems, and their data rate is 19.2kbps, not even close to enough for
Internet service.)
