<div dir="ltr">Here's a great article that the register had on their website about the Verizon vs. FCC case: <div><br></div><div><a href="http://www.theregister.co.uk/2014/01/18/why_almost_everyone_got_the_net_neutrality_verdict_wrong/">http://www.theregister.co.uk/2014/01/18/why_almost_everyone_got_the_net_neutrality_verdict_wrong/</a><br>
</div><div><br></div><div>If I understood the article correctly, the courts ruled that while FCC has the power to enforce the net neutrality rules, it cannot just write them and placed them under the classic "common provider" rules that are used for voice service since Congress has passed laws that make voice service different from data service.</div>

I ended up with 2 coax lines from the street - a for TV + residential ISP and b<br>
for commercial ISP. A few months later, canceled the residential TV and ISP.<br>
The 'b' cable was new, thicker and took a 100% shorter run to the demarcation<br>
point - better signal.<br>
<br>
Comcast was extremely clear that having "commercial TV" over the business line<br>
in a residential neighborhood was forbidden by the public utility commission.<br>
Perhaps residential TV could share the same line - don't know. Dumped CATV for<br>
antennas a while ago. Getting 65 channels OTA from Cobb county.<br>
<br>
Using the term "commicast" seems completely inappropriate. They are definitely<br>
capitalists, not communists or socialists. ;) Their stock price has been beating<br>
the SP500 the last 3 yrs or so. Capitalists, definitely.<br>
