Default The internet sky is falling
2010: D-day for the Internet as it hits "full capacity"? : Christopher Null : Yahoo! Tech

Quote:
Doom-filled warnings arrive from AT&T this week. The company says that without substantial investment in network infrastructure, the Internet will essentially run out of bandwidth in just two short years.
No surprise... this si why they need to take the routing servers away from half-wit companies like comcast, AT&T, Cox and Verizon and let an impartial 3rd party manage them.... hopefully one that supports Net Neutrality to prevent asshat corporations from charging us more for certain sites or by the Megabyte...


Thanks HL and Corsair!
