Speakeasy Unaffected by FCC Ruling

NaDrew writes "Speakeasy, the favorite DSL provider of many a Slashdotter, has issued a press release stating that they do not expect to be affected by the FCC ruling allowing ILECs to refuse to lease their lines to third-party providers. This is because the ruling specifically states that CLECs--such as Covad, from whom Speakeasy resells service--are not to be denied unbundled wholesale access to ILEC lines."

    I was starting to wish the ruling was as terrible as everyone was going ape shit over. I thought for sure we'd have affordable wireless broadband for all after a few months of the Bells trying to lock out competition.
