They should just ask the spammers. They have us mapped out pretty well.

I am a little confused here.. I went to the website that is linked to see what is offered in my area. The FCC says I have 5 providers and the 2 that the site found were Cox and Time Warner.. But neither of those provide any service here. It is Comcast , Adelphia and Charter ( I cant get service from any of them ).

Little confused is all. I will check Cox and Time Warners website to make sure.

I also went to the site and it tell me I have 9 broadband providers but lists 0 providers. The only thing I have available is Satellite and it does not let me add Hughesnet to the system. hmmm...

You might want to call your president, senator, congressman...

Heck, toss in your mayor and governer and whoever else might interested for a vote. Most of us don't care enough, but if we did it might make a difference.

FCC's competition is currently a joke. If Chicago only has a few/two choices if lucky, what does everywhere else look like? Competition at the few businesses in the downtown district don't really count as competition,,,

Re: How Wired

Do you think spammers care whether you have broadband or dialup? All they care about is whether you have an e-mail address.

They care when they are looking for addresses to spam from. Check out how many major ISP's are on spam blacklists.
