Truth to Power

Airplane internet…yet another reason to stay home

To steal from the best I ask, what fresh hell is this? </p>

Airborne Internet might bring turbulence </p>

NEW YORK – Seat 17D is yapping endlessly on an Internet phone call. Seat 16F is flaming Seat 16D with expletive-laden chats. Seat 16E is too busy surfing porn sites to care. Seat 17C just wants to sleep. </p>

Welcome to the promise of the Internet at 33,000 feet – and the questions of etiquette, openness and free speech that airlines and service providers will have to grapple with as they bring Internet access to the skies in the coming months.</em></p>

Ugh. </p>
