FCC opens curtain on Google puppetmaster
,----[ Quote ]
| But one question remains: Did Google have any interest in actually winning
| those airwaves for itself - or was that open-access-pushing bid merely the
| final move in an epically-Machiavellian scheme to force Verizon into a
| wireless personality transplant?

| Considering that Google bid more than $4.7bn to push the C Block auction past
| the reserve price, the truth is somewhere in-between.

Verizon makes nice with P2P

| So what’s it to be? Well Verizon appears, at least to be considering a middle
| road, one where instead of working against P2P, or just putting up with its
| traffic costs, it will offer protocols to help co-operate with P2P networks
| to deliver entertainment, by better understanding the conditions of the
| network it is traveling over. That really IS open.
