                                                                 If it gets me access - meatiger MU - 3/29 13:45:09
                                                            But your ISP is not held to the same standard - Badird MU - 3/29 13:42:37
                                                                 If there is a potential for 80% market opportunity - meatiger MU - 3/29 13:43:58

                                                                      You see no value in the FCC - Badird MU - 3/29 13:59:08
     I might add, one solution for this: - GA Tiger MU - 3/29 12:31:55
          Solution for what? (nm) - pickle MU - 3/29 12:39:53
          So you limit their ability to rape you - Mormad MU - 3/29 12:35:23
