Chinese proposal to meter Internet traffic

China wants to meter all internet traffic that passes through its
borders, it has emerged.
The move would require international agreement - but it is being
discussed by the United Nations body in charge of internet standards.

"An ITU spokesman said: "The ITU has no plans to modify the BGP
