Re: Another nice move by Comcast You realize that the fact the meeting is held at Stanford Uni has no relevance to the meeting, they can hold it in a hotel, high school gym, banquet hall, night club, sports stadium, theater, etc. |

| Clearly you didn't watch any of the coverage of the event, where Lawrence Lessig (Stanford law prof) had an entire PowerPoint presentation dedicated to highlighting Standford as a cradle for Internet innovation, citing the birth of Google and Yahoo!, among other things.
Barbara van Schewick (also from Stanford) gave a presentation mid-way through the hearing stating that investor fears that P2P-like apps would be throttled have resulted in at least one project that she was aware of being denied funding.
It was more than just a random venue, Stanford faculty presented at the event. |
