Public ISPs have been testing these types of systems for over 5 years. What sorts of differences can you think of that would explain why public ISPs have found them not very effective?
Public ISPs have been using walled gardens for a long time for user registration and collecting credit card information. So they know how to implement walled gardens. But what happens when public ISPs use it for infected machines?
