Oh, how do you know you can trust the VPN folks anymore than the
cable-modem folks though? eventually the same cost issues are going to
arise for the VPN folks as did for cable-modem/dsl folks (downward
pressure on pricing and infra/opex/capex costs going
up/not-decreasing).

They're not more trustworthy, but since they don't require widespread
local physical infrastructure it's potentially a more competitive
market.
