[Novalug] FIOS available: should I?

That's my gripe.  I don't know of any other ISP that allows servers
besides Speakeasy.  How someone can pay for bandwidth and not use it for
what ever they feel like it is beyond me.  It's like paying for a spoon,
but not being allowed to eat certain types of food, maybe you don't eat
the foods that are banned, but why be limited?  I understand that most
people don't need or use a server, but it's like giving up a freedom, just
because you don't participate in that freedom, is it worth giving it up? 
It goes against the whole fabric of being American.

Legalize Freedom!  And boycott those who don't!
