FCC Weighs Net Access Charge Decision
An anonymous reader writes "The FCC is considering a request from AT&T to lift restrictions on the types of charges they can level against competitors that use their infrastructure. The organization had previously allowed that for Verizon by virtue of a deadlock, and Ma Bell now hopes to see similar treatment. 'All the requests have been strongly opposed by smaller rivals such as Sprint Nextel, Time Warner Telecommunications and XO Communications. These competitors argue that they have few alternatives to get access to the high-speed lines they need, and are being charged more and more by the dominant carriers.'"
I agree in principle, but unconstitutional is unconstitutional.
How is funding infrastructure unconstitutional.
The FCC is nothing more than remnants of FDR's failed socialistic quagmire.
Yes, the failed socialistic quagmire that pulled us out of the Great Depression, won WWII and made the U.S. the wealthiest and most powerful nation on the planet. Bad FDR, no donut.
