You might be blinded by the 200 year old concept of laws in this country, but don't ignore the insight to be gained from this. They are not criminals if they operated outside legal jurisdictions, and shouldn't go to jail for helping the ignorant see the light. What price are you paying exactly from this? education? Alot of history's greatest minds who made contributions to society, were also labeled as petty criminals by ignorants like yourself. be more scared of your neighbor's ability to go to a gun store and purchase an assault rifle to blow your head off.
For the record, as a Road Runner employee and admin, Road Runner's policy on it's cable modem service is to not disclose any login, email, or private service related info to "any" party without a court order. Just want to make that clear. =]
Media One (now owned by ATT) is the cable providing Affiliate.. Road Runner is the company that owns and manages the cable routers, backbone networks and internet systems...
It's not a merger, it's a partnership of services that takes place to give you the service.
AFN DATA "a high speed data service which is currently available to businesses and institutions that require a large amount of bandwidth." It looks as if the "AFN INTERNET" service uses..... ehm... lets see.... a "CABLE MODEM" =)
This won't catch on like wild fire because of 2 reasons, Quality Fiber that an information infrastructure like that requires, costs in the range of $35,000 - $70,000 a mile, and it's NOT ANYWHERE YET, unless it's part of some local loop or local backbone.... Construction companies that build houses also usually NEVER run fiber to them when they are built. So this won't ever really be a truely available (to the masses) fiber to the house topology. Now this may change 10 years from now... but not next year... Also, Bell South doesn't have the support personal for this, nor the IT networking experience either... Plus, no national backbone.. hence, bell south sucks... I live in their service area, and have had nothing but bad experiences with them for everything from POTS, ISDN, and commercial T1's. They price gouge worse than the cable companies... I couldn't imagine calling them for anything non-telco.... p.s. Cisco(What the big Cable companies and most ISP's use) will be out Lucent(what the telcos use) with the IP over Sonet gear... Much more scalable. My office just signed off for $3 million worth for this city...
I'm an admin for a cable modem service and I'm by myself with a customer base of over 10,000 , I don't need the friggin subscribers calling be the ignoramous phone reps asking stupid support questions because we ALLOW SERVERS as part of the service and having every single call transferred to me... it's a simple support and network responsability issue... GET A CLUE
are you stoopid or sompin'? bloaded monstrisities is EXACTLY what IE IS! if ya don't like navigator, then use something like mozilla... AOL isn't any better than yo beasthoemonger company M$.
I'm sorry, but I always thought the wab was a collaborative effort between colleges and universities to share documents.... Who says this is the guy who "invented" the web. Besides, there are so many protocols on the "web" that this guy's talkin' out his but if he says he invented it.
