How are landline broadband caps such a red flag when the entire cellphone industry is based around data caps? Is wireless data really so much more precious than wired?

On the spectrum, it sure is. Wired bandwidth is not really as big of an issue as this politician makes it out to be.

IMO he's looking for a backdoor way into regulating the Internet under pretenses that most people won't oppose. First it's this harmless thing like this that few object to. They get settled in for a few years and then ten or twenty years from now it turns into a "War on the Internet" with a broad unconstitutional federal witch hunt. As if this law would be constitutional anyway. I don't think it is.




Political freedom can only be preceded by economic freedom which is preceded by monetary freedom.
