I think this may be a downside of this approach. Patrick talked about young
boys with technical inclinations... I think it won't be long before one
finds out how to bypass the VPN router and hook up a computer directly to
the unfiltered internet on the WAN side of the router. Of course, if a
password is needed, then this may work.

This is basically the same as the satellite operator offer, with the
difference that with the satellite solution, there is no unfiltered
internet at the individual locations.
