Gubernatorial Candidate Speaks Out Against CAS

New submitter C0R1D4N writes "Carl Bergmanson, a New Jersey gubernatorial democrat running in the 2013 primary, has recently spoken out against the new 'six strike policy' being put in place this week by major ISPs. He said: 'The internet has become an essential part of living in the 21st century, it uses public infrastructure and it is time we treat it as a public utility. The electric company has no say over what you power with their service, the ISPs have no right to decide what you can and can not download.'"

Finally, someone standing up against Computer Algebra Systems! Those whizzy calculators are destroying education in this country, leaving children mathematically crippled, unable to manage the simplest symbolic manipulation in their own heads.

Yeah, I didn't RTFS beyond the headline; why do you ask?

I disagree completely! I don't think that any member of the government has any authority to dictate whether memory controllers should or should not use Column Address Select. It's a technical problem that politicians should clearly stay away from!
