Let me see if I understand this correctly.

People are defending the FCC?

The same FCC that ruled that any data service over 200Kbits was broadband, not "Information Service" and thus came 
under the purview of 
the FBI and CALEA - directly contravening the language and intent of the CALEA act?

Sometimes the enemy of your enemy is just your enemy.
