Mabus / Markuze was also in Canada & while the initial complaint was from another Canadian, the near constant stream of reports coming in from all over the world is most likely what made the investigator stay on the case. Of course, Mabus / Markuze was prolific to the extreme with his threats & rants & also very sick in the head.

Snicker. Another RW moron that doesn't know that Saint Reagan actually began the "Obamaphone" program.

"The Lifeline program originated in 1984, during the administration of Ronald Reagan; it was expanded in 1996, during the administration of Bill Clinton; and its first cellular provider service (SafeLink Wireless) was launched by TracFone in 2008, during the administration of George W. Bush. All of these milestones were passed prior to the advent of the Obama administration."

Republican Bill Aims To Thwart the FCC's Leaning Towards Title II 182

SpzToid writes U.S. congressional Republicans on Friday proposed legislation that would set "net neutrality" rules for broadband providers, aiming to head off tougher regulations backed by the Obama administration. Republican lawmakers hope to counter the Federal Communications Commission's vote on Feb. 26 for rules that are expected to follow the legal path endorsed by President Barack Obama, which Internet service providers (ISPs) and Republicans say would unnecessarily burden the industry with regulation. Net neutrality activists, now with Obama's backing, have advocated for regulation of ISPs under a section of communications law known as Title II, which would treat them more like public utilities. The White House on Thursday said legislation was not necessary to settle so-called "net neutrality" rules because the Federal Communications Commission had the authority to write them.
