JackASSES! I live in Los Angeles where the department of sanitation complains about quality of garbage. I really can't see government employed idiots running a broadband network. It's best run by corporations. Actually it's owned by the municipalities not ran by them. A private company designs, implements and manages it and the multiple private contractors involved (www.packetfront.com). This misconception and uneducated remarks like this are why the open network model is having such a hard time remedying the broadband divide we have in the US. Once people look into it and educate themselves and others it is an obvious choice for the broken/outdated telecommunications oligopoly systems we have today. I am so sick and tired of these bigwigs (Comcast, Quest etc.) making promises to the govt about how they are going to give 'broadband' connections to the masses and then not delivering but just driving our prices up for such small bandwidth. Do you consider 200Kbs broadband? I don't! |
