Somebody in high places got pissed.

What I am wondering is what behind the scenes thing happened to make the FCC finally move to at last enforce the rules on this issue.

Dig deep and i'm sure AT&T is involved, like that other market they managed to get shut down.

Why would AT&T even care? This is residential Internet service. AT&T actually played around with BPL two or three years ago in California and pulled out due to business reasons.

Edit: AT&T also funded the Penn State BPL study from two years ago. This was the study that determined BPL could do 1 Gbps under "ideal" conditions.

That was just one of the things I was thinking about. except for the fact none of the big providers thing BPL is in anyway a viable threat to their business.
