Will the FCC stay committed to rural America? - 0 views

    Will the FCC stay committed to rural America? The Hill Op-Ed By Former Senator Byron Dorgan Almost every month, a new telecommunications innovation is launched that has a profound impact on our lives. Lately we've seen the impact of these telecommunication changes in ways we never could have imagined. In past months we've witnessed the Egyptian government being toppled by citizens using their cell phones to organize mass rallies and send videos of shocking violence against the demonstrators around the world. And in just recent days we learned it was through sophisticated tracking of a cell phone that led our soldiers to Osama bin Laden's doorstep in Pakistan. In both cases, a broadband wireline network infrastructure transported these important communications and changed history. http://thehill.com/blogs/congress-blog/technology/164691-will-the-fcc-stay-committed-to-rural-america

Mexico Congress Rejects ACTA - 0 views

  •  
    June 23, 2011 By Sean Flynn "This presents an interesting development in the context of major challenges to the legality of the implementation of ACTA in the EU and US. In the EU, there is a challenge under the Lisbon Treaty to the competence of the Commission to enter agreements on criminal provisions. And in the US, legal academics have questioned (without response by the administration) the authority of the executive to enter the agreement as a sole executive order without any congressional approval. So - is ACTA just a soft law declaration by its executive branch negotiators?"
