I already quoted him verbatim. As always, go back to my very first post. If
Commissioner O'Rielly SAID that aesthetics was one of the concerns with 5G,
I'll take his word for it.
The obvious success of the wireless industry AFTER deregulation says
volumes
Again, go back to my very first post. The success of the wireless industry is
continuing AFTER Title II was imposed on them. Here too, O'Rielly acknowledged
this fact. He did try to claim that the success without Title II would have
been even greater, but of course, that's pure speculation. Facts in evidence
are, the big growth he described is occurring WITH Title II in place.
As O'Rielly points out, the shift back to Title II regulation only
emboldens those who live by regulation.
As a shift away only emboldens the special interests to pursue only their own
interests.
Regulation can benefit consumers at the expense of special interests,
Yup. The special interests are made to produce their product more carefully.
That's not a bad thing. Regulations that keep lead out of toys for toddlers is
not a bad thing. Regulations are imposed always as a result of bad actors
creating problems in the past, willfully or just out of negligence. Automatic
opposition to regulation is simply dumb.
rather than protecting special interests and government enabled
monopolies that harm consumers.
An FCC that shirks one if its PRIMARY responsibilities, and instead gives its
blessing to any telecom that decides to offer non-neutral telecom service, *is*
protecting the special interests, Craig. An FCC that weasels around, pretending
not to understand what constitutes a telecom service, just so they can do the
bidding of the special interests, *is* protecting the special interests, Craig.
You are too focused on telecommunications. The world is going wireless
in MANY ways.
Yes, Craig. Any image can be defocused to the point that one can no longer make
out what it was. This has nothing to do with Title II or telecom services. You
don't need a telecom service to run a wireless mouse.
