FCC To Reclassify Internet Access As Long Distance
CNNfn - October 28, 1998: 7:01 p.m. ET

WASHINGTON, D.C., U.S.A. (NB) -- By Robert MacMillan,
Newsbytes. The Federal Communications Commission Friday may
issue a ruling that classifies telephone calls made to access Internet
service providers as long distance calls rather than local calls.

A source within a key long distance provider told Newsbytes that
no one is sure whether this will cause consumers to pay more because
of potential increased long distance fees, or whether they will pay less
because of the elimination of reciprocal compensation agreements
