Re: VZ blows, however on this issue I agree with them said by vz sucks :
It's time for the moochers to stop mooching and build their own networks be it fiber, wireless, or whatever. Don't give me crap about the barriers of entry being to high, rights of way issues, etc, etc, etc. Money makes the world go 'round. If you can't afford the start up costs then you are SOL!
END THE FREE RIDE.
Be careful what you ask for. You might just get it and live to regret it.
Anyone remember back in the .COM boom of the late 1990's how companies were tearing up streets all over the place to lay down fiber? Atlanta was a huge mess with contractors tripping over each other tearing up streets and there was nothing the city could do to stop them due to Federal rules.
And wouldn't it look lovely to have a huge overhead rats nest of wires like some third world country or as wiring looked in the United States back in the early 1900's in many cities? Telco's were given a monopoly back then to limit the number of competitors and companies stringing wires. |
