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."

    Public Water != bottled water
    Libraries != bookstores
    Fire/Police != private security firms

    In other words, your analogies, along with the rest of your argument, are crap.
