Re: [Georgia Windstream Problems] Funny how the FCC goes after AT&T over throttling...

Wes Wingo commented on Jason Rappaport's post in Georgia Windstream Problems. Wes Wingo 11:12am Oct 29 Unfortunately my the lawyer I was working with said a class action against Windstream would be very difficult in several ways 󾌣 Comment History Joe Burnham 10:41am Oct 29 Thank you Kevin Ellison. Kevin Ellison 10:35am Oct 29 Joe, welcome to Dawson/Lumpkin politics. Keep asking the questions. Good Luck. Joe Burnham 10:30am Oct 29 You're a good man. :) Frank Gilkeson 10:28am Oct 29 I discussed the issue of not deploying the Gigabit Internet with Charles Gibson, CEO of AmEMC ($410,000 in 2012) over the phone. He told me that it was too risky. He is afraid that someone would come in and take the business away and the AmEMC ratepayers would be stuck with considerable debt to pay off. I asked him to put the position in writing and he refused. AmEMC gets 38% of energy from nuclear, 29% from coal and 29% from gas. AmEMC constantly lobbies against renewables. Some members of the AmEMC board have been there for 20-30-40 years. Joe Burnham 10:22am Oct 29 Thank you for this information. I assume too risky, means not enough money to be made. They are creating a monopoly (or already have) through the EMCs then for the G I. Google is doing GigInt in many cities also and giving all the Telcoms competition. View All Comments Original Post Jason Rappaport 7:20am Oct 29 Funny how the FCC goes after AT&T over throttling but they do nothing about Windstream providing essentially throttled service constantly. Oh and the whole unlimited long distance isn't unlimited based on whatever phone numbers they consider as abuse. View Post on Facebook · Edit Email Settings · Reply to this email to add a comment.
