I agree on lack of regulation, adding probability BT/Openreach and other majors manipulating the market.
Sadly I see multiple fibre installations along local streets where one would suffice if the 'carrier' market were better controlled to force prices down.
Such a waste of resources, money and environmental impact.
Sadly we do not hear enough about or praise enough those who have vision and drive when they are most active.
Demon was my first 'business' user internet facility shortly after it started up. The staff and support were excellent. One took time out to help me learn perl.
My sincere condolences.

Looks like a grab for all internet websites. 'meta' is a fundamental for good internet sites, using the html tag 'meta' to enhance information or deliver instruction to the browser and user.
Most likely any future search for 'meta' tag data/values will surface the new Meta, instead of desired technical information.
Pity 'meta' is open source technical keyword and, probably, cannot be cited as 'protected' or 'licenced'.
Looks like more trouble ahead for developers.

Maybe the gods have decided to **** on us in order to gain more attention to themselves.
I gather from MetOffice that snow is due to fall in England this week. What colour would we wish for?
