Comment You asked for it (Score 1) 303

For those of you who screamed you had a "right" to control the property of your service providers to tell them how they had to run their network by the simple fact that you couldn't build a network of your own.

You found that the only way to enforce that right was through the use of a gun, in other words the government. If in whatever way your twisted logic somehow decided by regulating the internet you would free it, here is just one example of the logical consequence of these types of regulations.

Wait until the special interests start lobbying the FCC for the right to force the service providers to insert disclaimers here, or block some sort of thing they declare as libel but are too cowardly to sue for.

And wait until you start paying the "Net Neutrality recovery fee" as a percentage of your monthly bill at a rate set not by any need of providing bandwidth, but by the whim and vote of unaccountable bureaucrats in the PUC or FCC or some other allegedly beneficial set of parasites.

Brother, you asked for it.

Comment I have false phone listing data also (Score 1) 401

If some government agency cares to spend several million dollars checking it out, they will find that I have falsified the info my phone company puts in the phone book too, not because I am some criminal, but because I don't want junk mail, and when anyone calls my house looking for a mister "Jubal Harshaw," I know the call is junk.

And the reason I do this instead of getting my number unlisted, is Verizon charges something like $3 a month for that privilege.
