Re: A nice way of putting it..

well considering the dire state of "high speed internet" in the USA. As I have mentioned before I live not even a mile from a 100 Gigabit connection (I checked!) and the best we can get on campus is Comcast which they absolutely refuse to make it easy to buy JUST internet. I have DSL from a 3rd party but it is pretty meagre and I STILL have to pay ATT for a piece of copper. In addition these companies keep trying to sell crap that noone wants, especially those who use internet only. Get the message be good , fast dumb pipes - no limits. I'd pay 100$/mth for 1Gb/s, but I will not pay you 50$/mth for Cable no matter what "bundle" you have.

I have no sympathy for big corps. They have had it too easy, too long, so whatever the FCC does I hope it makes them uncomfortable. Chattanooga has 1Gb/s internet, and that doesn't even have a supercomputing center...
