Re: Government Does Not Equal People anymore
Considering I lived in that city for 10 years, and go there all the time, I have followed this project since it was first mentioned here and locally.
The incumbent providers used every means in the book, to get the citizens from lafayette to vote against this FTTH project.
They had telemarketers call votes, and give them miss-information, to the point where they had 2 "local citizens" who could not be found in any phone book, or city directory file a law suit against them. One law suit was dropped without a reason, the other was lost, and appealed. I can promise you an ordinary citizen would not be paying for those legal bills. *waves at Bellsouth*
Considering I have Cox cable from that area, and Currently pay $55 a month for a 9mb/1mb package, I'd love to see a faster connection at a lower cost. I had Bellsouth DSL, but the fastest speed I could get was 1.5mb down.
Good Luck Lafayette, I salute you! |
