In reading this thread. Does this mean that if I send an 0xFFFF bit
pattern
to a network versus a 0x0000 pattern I'd be charged more for the energy
consumption since all the 1's are high and consume more elecetric

no, it's the transitions from 0 to 1 or vice versa that take the energy.
that's why the nanog list is so repetitive, saves money.
