Texas Wireless Ban Has Failed

Posted by Zonk on from the one-state-with-market-opportunities dept.

chip rosenthal writes "The effort to ban municipal networks in Texas has failed. Texas House Bill 789 originally had provisions to ban muni wireless networks. The Senate passed a significantly rewritten version, without a ban. A conference committee failed to reach agreement, so the bill died when the Texas legislature adjourned this weekend."

    so the bill died when the Texas legislature adjourned this weekend.
    Similar to so many other things that reside in Texas - ie: prisoners.
