Pai's comments are not "an example".


There are specific examples in the comments I quoted. Mr Pai named more specific examples in the transcript I linked to. You seem to be in a state of blind rage and unable to read anything.

If you'd like a deep dive level of information, you could try contacting some of the named companies and associations, like

I'm sure they'd be happy to fill you in, if you're willing to listen to them.

This is the signal. Startup ISPs are where the action is starting today.

This is not how you do discourse on the internet — asserting the emotional state (or ability to read) of people on the other side of the screen. I'm quite calm, thanks; I simply reject Pai's agenda-serving statements as anything but agenda-serving (and also a little bit "appeal to authority", but I'm not feeling terribly inclined to chase that notion down the fallacy rabbit hole when I have so much work to do I'm only now breaking for lunch, so whatever).

Please do what you've repeatedly been asked in this thread and cite examples, not propaganda.


>cite examples

I did, in the post you are responding to.

>>>>Do you have any examples? Or any reason to believe that the startup ISPs will bother with anyone outside of a major metro area?

>>>the Wireless Internet Service Providers Association, which represents small fixed wireless companies that typically operate in rural America

>>http://www.wispa.org/


I really don't find a lobbyist organization's web site to be any more compelling than Pai's comments, sorry. They're going to offer just as much cherry-picked, agenda-serving propaganda as he is, and won't discuss the issue honestly or transparently either.
