Re: Regulatory intervention

[Tom Vest <tvest () pch net>]

Growing mainstream press today, e.g.,

http://www.boston.com/business/globe/articles/2005/10/07/ 
dispute_threatens_to_snarl_internet/

Note the title:
"Dispute threatens to snarl Internet: Service providers' row may spur  
push for global regulation"

Quick showing of hands:
How many people think that the disputants are not-so-secretly hoping  
that the title is accurate, because it represents a far better future  
for them than what our newly re-engineered "market" for transport  
services is likely to provide?

(a conspiratorially good morning to all)
