Since when have you started to publish your sensitive corporate
documents on public sites, cause that's what's needed for TLMC to
cache your documents in the first place.
Look,
If a CSP (Content Service Provider - where you host your documents)
does not want to have it's content cached, they don't need too. The
cache server(s) at the ISP:s around the world will then _not_ be able
to cache it.
The traffic will in this case, will be loaded directly from the CSP.

No. It will help the ISP:s to distribute their loads in their network.

How about those who have limited bandwidth to the Internet? Like
ferries, trains, buses or satellite links...
