I believe this only applies to public data networks, such as Telenet
and Tymnet, not ordinary voice-line modems, which use long-distance
common carriers that already pay the surcharge.

It's still terrible, though.  It will add the $5/hour or so to MCI,
Bix, CompuServe, Delphi, etc...  It will also eliminate PC Pursuit.
