I foresee it being optional. 

Some will preffer it being free , while some who can will prefer to pay for it. 

A free sevice will have its cons while a paid service will center on its pros

i.e value for quality. 

Focus should primariry be at this point internet for all.

I totally agree with you Mohammed, if we do not want a bicéphal internet with a Private party and another who will be free with perpetual war, as we are seeing at the softwares, better leave things as they are. Each finding its interest, without encroaching too far on the other's.

the internet access must be free, as the oxygen breathing, the proposition that Internet could be provided as a public service and funded through taxes is not very correct because most part of the world population suffers from taxes or already are overtaxed, all of us know about the quality of public services, nowadays most public services are privatized. in the end internet services will be reprivatized again.
I think there should be a tax on each internet financial transaction not on the client side but on the side of companies,  we all days  heard about internet money and the expononcial number of bilion.
peering is greet solution for reducing cost of internet.

May I speculate that access is cheap enough that it can be treated as a
universal good, much like light-houses.

Universals are beneficial to everyone, but cost so little per benefit
that it's hard to figure out how to charge for them. Lighthouses are
the classic example, and are the very first thing that the government of
the United States built...
