That damn - Out here? (About time wage and telephones).

 A week ago, reading "Arguments and Facts"
I came across a small article which, in
I think that will be interesting piterburzhtsam.
It deals with all the hateful
networker "povremenke" ...



               COMMUNICATION STOP?

 From 1 April, the city begins
experiment to introduce time wage
telephone conversations.
 PTC argues his conduct
"Vtravnivaniem the load on the equipment and
"Social justice". While AO
"Petersburg Telephone Network (PTN) will be
send along with their regular and per-minute "
receipt of payment device. Experiment
and generally "pominutka" will not affect
subscribers of the old PBX and residents
communal apartments.

  However, many believe that the introduction of
system time payment of telephone
nasvoevremenno conversations. For TCP and seyaas
many complaints from consumers.
 For example, why when you move into the already
the phone is a room or simply
in re-Comer charge you?
Although this is no work and consumption
materials does not occur. Why is charged
fee for the use of fax machines,
fax modems, answering machines and AONov? All
this equipment in terms of
operation of the network is no different from
ordinary telephone. A pirate conn `chenie
to telefonnymliniyam, for which safety
should, logically, to respond PTAs, and
thousandths of an account for long-distance
negotiations coming nicheg not
unsuspecting citizens?
 Introduction "povremenki" pozhdaet more
issues.
 By law, monopoly within the region
shall not provide subscribers with different
the same service at different prices.
Therefore, at present unacceptable
introduction of per-minute charges on a single PBX
or in one of the city.
 The introduction of pay-per-minute strike
Science and customers associated with
computer network "Internet" (and particularly - in
nonprofit FTN networks. - Approx.
editor). This is tantamount to a prohibition
the time of cybernetics and genetics.
 The only thing that pleases in this story
and telephone operators understand themselves: Cavalry
swoop "povremenku not enter." Too
veoyatnost great social upheaval. K
"Pominutke" citizens will teach
gradually, in groups, one-three thousand
people.
