This surprises you?

The FCC BENDS OVER for big $$. Period!

They could give two sh**s about the "public interest" any more. Odd, especially when you consider the public interest is why they exist!

The FCC is part of the Executive Branch and as such is directly run by Dick Cheney. Knowing what a crook HE is, this shouldn't surprise anyone.

I love this part:

"I'm concerned we missed an opportunity to provide an elusive third broadband channel into the home," FCC Commissioner Jonathan Adelstein said in a statement.

Then why did you VOTE for it, IDIOT???!!!

While this item does not deliver everything consumers and innovators wanted, or many of the improvements I suggested, our decision today represents an important step, if a modest one, in the right direction. We can be proud to say we are offering consumers a new paradigm they have longed for and certainly deserve.
Apparently letting consumers actually access this unbuilt network with their laptop is a "new paradigm."

Apparently Karl works for Broadband Reports which supports the interests of the incumbent Broadband Providers. Enough said.
