The last time I checked, the NSP's who were offering SSL were charging extra for it, and quite a bit. I thought at the time that they had no real reason for charging extra, but of course I'm not an NSP. How much extra cost would you incur for offering SSL access? If little or none, then why not just offer it by default? If it's not trivial, then where do the extra costs come from?
