The quesetion is bogus, there is no such thing as a right to have a route
in my router without paying me for it. If I choose to extend that privilege
to people who meet certain minimum requirements because I believe the
benefits will outweight the costs, then that's *my* right. All others can
pay me to do it if they want me to. Your rights end at my network.
