Re: Good for Lafayette!
What company would be stupid enough to take on the telcos? Are you going to enter a market and go head to head with the telcos when you know its going to cost you 3 years and $20 million in litigation just to get started? Hell no. The government is the only one who is going to take on that burden and they will do that for the betterment of the community because there is no profit in it.
I think that the local sheriff will be breaking the law if he hacks into my home computer even if I am on his network. And secondly if I'm that worried about being on the cities network then I can keep on using the AT&T phone line for dial up at 56K. Hmm, so 56K or 1.5Mbps and a risk that Sheriff Roscoe might break the law and hack me looking for receipts that I sold plutonium and children to ......
A choice is not a bad thing. Even if its a choice between the government or a company.  |
