Proposed Mobile Internet Service Interferes With GPS Units

From my point of view of being against the takeover of the United
States by corporate interests, this is almost laughable. The well-heeled
corporate interests at LightSquared are lobbying to push their theory
that their snatch of bandwidth isn't going to do any harm to existing
services because, well, because they say so.

On the other hand, we have reports that:

Government tests showed that "LightSquared signals caused harmful
interference to the majority of?general purpose GPS receivers," said
Anthony Russo, director of the National Coordination Office for
Spaced-Based Positioning, Navigation and Timing, a government and
industry advisory board, in a statement late Wednesday.

How will it end? The usual way: another corporate takeover of an area
that should be tightly regulated to protect the public's interest. And
we'll all probably have to subscribe for payment to some future
commercial GPS service.

Corporatism uber alles.

WELL THEN, DON'T JUST SIT THERE, DO SOMETHING...

If he actually did something, the coward wouldn't have anything to sit a
whine about.
