Fair enough, perhaps I've misinterpreted the intent of your comment. I don't see how it adds to a constructive conversation one way or the other on the issue at hand; maybe you just intended to highlight the absurdity of an ISP's fee structure.
I was highlighing the absurdity of the fee structure.
To expand on what I said in my second comment, the tax was probably created by the government to serve a relevant purpose that I don't know about. I trust that there is a reason for the tax. The fact that it was being applied inappropriately to customers was the absurd part. It's like an electric vehicle being taxed for highway tailpipe emissions.
Okay, I understand better now; thank you for clarifying :)
