Why does broadband still suck in 2009?
lloydP: 1) Why did Verizon lobby broadband competition out of my area?2) Why do I have to pay Verizon (oligopoly with Comcast in my area) $100 to get a static IP address?3) Why does the fine print way down in my Verizon FIOS license agreement forbid me to hook any kind of server to their network?4) Isn't the Internet supposed to be a MULTIWAY communication channel -- not just some kind of enhanced television network?5) Look at how much Verizon invests in lobbying to understand how much they hate real competition and how little they care about providing the kind of service we'd really like to see.
