I love it that they had the FCC step in to stop the consumer protest and declare...
to "purposely try to disrupt or negatively impact a network with ill-intent is irresponsible and presents a significant public safety concern." Such BS. Isn't any large protest a potential safety concern? I'm now off to cover myself in bubble wrap. One can't be too safe, ya know.

Do you support the alternative of making government so small that you can drown it in a bathtub? Glenn Kelley wrote: Title II of the Communications Act-the section that regulates telecommunications common carriers is now being considered by the FCC to oversee broadband. FCC Commissioner Robert M. McDowell during a talk he gave to the Free State Foundation asked: (see First Do No Harm: A broadband plan for Amercia) "Exactly what kind of companies might get tangled up into this regulatory Rubik's Cube?.Any Internet company that offers a voice application?" . "With this newfound authority, why stop at voice apps? Isn't voice just another type of data app? As the distinction between network operators and application providers continues to blur at an eye-popping rate, how will the government be able to keep up?"
