“And regulating an industry which is on the cusp of working with our government and the states to bring internet everywhere finally could really jeopardize that critical and bipartisan goal by creating regulatory overhang, disincentivizing investment.” said Jonathan Spalter, president and CEO of broadband industry group USTelecom.

WTF bullshit is he spouting? Hate to break it to ya bud, the internet was conceived and executed…by the government. Or did you forget DARPA? On the cusp,,,ppphht.

And the rest of that word salad? Regulatory overhang? Disincentivizing? It’s all doublespeak for “padding shareholders pockets”.
