Yeah, I wish we didn't have overzealous AGs or that they had less power.

You keep saying that, but you're wrong. Unscrupulous ISP's took the
opportunity to save money by cutting all binary groups, then blaming
AG's when complaints came in.

Quote ""We are attacking this problem by working with Internet service providers to ensure they do not play host to this immoral business,"". Cuomo himself said that. You are old enough to know what "working with" means. Any questions?


Grow up and spend $2.95/mo (or less) for a full-fledged news service.

Let's face it, most alt groups are dead anyhow. The one for home automation fell into an almost total coma. Not worth it anymore, not even $2.95. Sorry, but this AG did manage to toss the baby with the bathwater.
Ummmmm? Cuomo is AG of YOUR state ?:-)

No, but AT&T is a nationwide ISP :-(

So is Cox, probably more so than AT&T.


Ummmmm? How come Cox still provides a news server with binary groups?

I don't know, maybe they refused to be treated like a naughty teenager. But out here there is only AT&T and Comcast. The latter only if you also take cable TV or it'll be VERY expensive. Only over my dead body ...


However, one does pay a serious price for thinking the left coast is a
good place to live... enjoy ;-)

Oh, I would not want to live there. But CA is even more left at times, as evidenced by the latest fat tax increase.

California IS the "_left_ coast" ;-)

Meaning more people moving to Texas, lessening the tax revenue, but I do not expect politicians to understand this.

And Arizona. All the major semiconductor companies either have, or
are in the process of establishing design centers in the Phoenix and
Tucson metro areas.


Yeah, and Intel is in Chandler. But:

Not my cuppa tea. I'd prefer Texas, Arkansas and so on. As long as nobody messes with Prop 13 California is still kind of ok from that perspective (lefties regularly try to break it).
