Bill Ready To Ban ISP Caps In the US

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the yeah-that'll-happen dept.

xclr8r writes "Eric Massa, a congressman representing a district in western New York, has a bill ready that would start treating Internet providers like a utility and stop the use of caps. Nearby locales have been used as test beds for the new caps, so this may have made the constituents raise the issue with their representative."

    I'm not sure who this new Bill guy is, but I like him already.

    A lot better than most of the other Bills around.
