1) This Oklahoma business may want or like faster Internet, but that does not mean government or presidential intervention is the answer.RussellK wrote:I'm reasonably sure if you are a business in rural Oklahoma you'd embrace this. I had a colleague that tried to run a truck agency using some fly by night satelite service because that was all that was available. Every time there were sunspots, rain, snow or birds landing on the dish they were out of commission. Given virually every transaction they did from bookings to dispatch to finalization was done via the cloud I don't see how they could possibly have functioned without fast dependable internet service. I know I couldn't. I just wrote a check to AT&T. It seems to me corporations already have control over the internet.
2) I wonder if any gov regulations is behind the need for this guy to use that system?
Businesses have some control over what they own.
I wonder if anyone writes any checks to a trucking company?
Does this mean the trucking companies already controls the trucking industry and highways or just their company? And if so to any of that is this a bad thing? Should the government own or control trucking companies? Now back to the beginning, I wonder if the trucking company wanting a system like you mentioned has anything to do with government regulations?
