Depends on if it is in their contract that they may do so.

I know you're trying to ask if there should be a law preventing them from doing so though, and the answer is no. If Cox Cable says "hey we are blocking all CNN related websites from our servers" who do those servers fricking belong to? Oh that's right Cox.

Now if they have a contract that says they won't do so ,and they violate the contract. then they have another problem entirely.

This is just like a few weeks ago the fat **** doctor on United. That plane belongs to United, they tell you to get off, get the frick off, it's THEIR plane and they have a contract that says "we can remove you from the plane for yada yada yada"

It's almost like we don't even respect property rights in this country any more.

Let's say that's the case. You sign up for internet service, and that's a line in the contract.

So the rules go into effect, and 6 months from now your ISP decides to block your access to this website. You'll have access to basic email, ESPN, Facebook, Youtube, etc, but smaller sites like this are completely blocked. You would be perfectly content with this?

You're quite wrong, but I don't want to hijack the thread.
