Issues related to competition and the business environment appear to
be within NANOG's charter.
The NANOG charter has included
"maintaining a competitive and level business environment."
since November 2000.
It seems to follow that measurements of the competitive and business
environment would be on-topic.
I understand some technologists prefer to ignore competition and
the realities of business and concentrate on ways to post HTML.

I wouldn't use ANY network that didn't allow me to post copious amounts of
HTML whenever I thought it was necessary or even desirable. I don't think
networks that prevent it should even be considered "Tier-1". :)
