Probably, but if you decide that *YOUR DRIVEWAY* should not be used to
transport some material and you hire a security guard to prevent people from
trespassing on your property, then you are simply asserting your property
rights.  I believe this is a more apt analogy.  My boss pays my phone bills.
If he says to cut down on the traffic, I'll do so.  I hope I don't have to
cut newsgroups to do it, but don't doubt for a minute that I'll respect
my company's right to control their property.
