The Future of The Internet - Blue Screen of Death for Broadband Via TV [Edit]

I blog. I try not to rant. But Bill Gates is just such an easy target!  The whole technology world looked to Microsoft to get the FCC to use TV frequencies to deliver broadband. Twice they have failed. TV lobbyists have a two strikes and your out rule and the politicians love TV.  This could be the death knell for the FCC to ever let broadband be delivered in this fashion. My standard rant applies: Bill Gates is a Prick.

Four other companies have submitted devices, and industry lobbyists are urging the FCC to try them, but TV lobbyists have earned a major victory. “By failing two out of two tests,” one lobbyist said, Microsoft had proven the devices “are not ready for prime time.” (newser)
