Hide and Go Seek: Finding the Disclosures in "Free" Internet Service Offers
This 2001 consumer alert explains "that some 'free' [Internet service] offers may end up being high cost, long-term items ... because important restrictions and conditions on these offers are not always disclosed clearly or conspicuously." It provides a list of questions to ask before accepting any "free" offers. From the Federal Trade Commission (FTC).
