The End of the Free Internet?

I say hey - if you can't make a buck and that's the only reason you're trying to communicate then just go away. I'm not logging on to spend money... go get a real job.
Google, Times of London, New York Times is not, however hard it is to snap out of that belief, the internet.
Another point totally oblivion to many authors of such articles is that the internet is a WORLD WIDE web. For many europeans for instance "internet" is still "free internet". Content is free. News is free. Information is free.
Personally I wouldn't say it's free per se though. Rather "publicly available". Still, in practice it's the same effect for the end user.
Headline should read;
"The end of Big Corporations providing free access to their content on the internet"
Ah. Another one of these. I'm sure ABC will have an original take on the topic.
