XYZ "for families?" What kind of BS is this? Where is it listed in the Constitution that you have a right government-provided Internet? Does making it "for families" make it better?
Made a little dumber by the fact these filters never work.

Martin's FCC plans also has filters as a cornerstone of the service. Have to please to "family values" groups in the south if you're going to have a post-FCC political career in the Carolinas....

Technical considerations aside, I could see a potential market for filtered Internet, considering there is a plethora of products and services on the market already that claim to provide such service.

That's plausible, but I would think that such considerations might have also been attached to other spectrum sales if that was the case.
