Re: Once Again - Government Holds Us Back

It is good for the folks who would never get service if the incumbent is allowed to harvest all the low-hanging fruit then abandon the field. The community is saying: it's all or nothing.

We all know Verizon will eventually agree to covering their entire footprint since the low-hanging fruit is mighty attractive - so it's just a matter of time.

to me looks more like a shining example of elected officials looking out for their constituents.
How is blocking the deployment of another choice in TV and/or Internet good for anyone?

Well at the rate this negotiation is going, prepare to wait 5 years for FIOS. Perhaps a 10% every year of NYC population must be added to FIOS, excluding MDUs with non-cooperating landlords, rather than 12345, 12346, 12743, 12483 must be wired by 05/12, 12764, 12749, 12223, 12764 must be wired by 09/12, etc.
