FCC Rules On Pulver Free World Dialup

Posted by timothy on from the no-brainers-are-easy-for-the-fcc dept.

An anonymous reader writes " Light Reading is reporting that the verdict is in on Pulver's FWD. 'The first big decision was a victory for VoIP proponents. The commission ruled that Pulver.com's Free World Dialup VOIP service is an information service, not a telecommunications service. The decision was based largely on the analysis that it doesn't fit the 1996 Telecom Act's definition of a telecommunications service.' To me this was a no-brainer on the part of the FCC. Let's see if they get the rest right too."

    Do you know, I keep telling myself to stop reading this piss-poor site, go out with my friends, get slaughtered, go bowling. Take up a social hobby like learning a language at night classes.

    Be more productive with the little time I have been given on the planet.

    And then I read a comment like the parents and I realise I'll never do that whilst we have SAGYDUYA trolls.
