First reaction is that this guy *really* needs some schooling in the value of having public-interest bodies facilitate and regulate interstate commerce in a federated system. Second reaction is that "commercializing the infrastructure" is a fairly dumb way to frame the debate, since we're not talking about the entire infrastructure but instead are talking about a couple of zones. Third reaction is that his opinion of what the Internet "needs" is not only wrong, but even if it were correct it would not give him the authority to usurp control over those zones.
