I'd like to know more about the decisions that led to this then. It seems to me like that's exactly what the FCC is supposed to be regulating.

- austincheney 9y agoThen you would be wrong. The FCC was created to regulate and license access to the RF spectrum, because radio frequencies are a natural finite resource.
- inetknght 9y agoBits sent across a wire use radio frequency transmission to do it. Bits processed in a routing system are a natural finite resource.
- austincheney 9y ago> Bits sent across a wire use radio frequency transmission to do it. No, they are either electrons pushed across metal with voltage or light bouncing around fiber. This is absolutely not part of the RF spectrum.
- inetknght 9y agoThey are pushed across at a specific frequency. Regardless, it is still communication. It's very clearly the domain of the Federal Communication Commission. If not, then the FCC is simply named wrong. Then whose domain does it belong a part of? FTC has clearly rejected the ability to solve neutrality issues.
- austincheney 9y agoIt was named in 1934, and at that time the naming was fully appropriate. Ignoring history, inventing your own terms, and sticking your head in the sand could explain why you are confused about what the FCC is (as opposed to what you wish it were).
