Usually I would not post something like this, but I don't know who was smoking what at the FCC this morning.
There's a docket, 05-311, where local franchising authorities have now been given clear rules on what they must do and when in granting franchises to new video entrants (new cable TV systems), and this was in response to alot of abuses that were going on.
The docket is still open because earlier this month they issued a further notice of proposed rulemaking along with the order that set up some of the new rules. There's still alot of water to flow under the bridge here with this docket.
But this morning, they let one slip, BIG TIME!
An email spammer sent a load of links to pornography on his website. About two pages worth to be exact. Since the email was converted to pdf format you could not click on them, nor would you even want to.
Once I saw it I reported the site via phone to Orem-based ProHosting via a local number on the WHOIS record for prohosting.com. The agent I talked to when I reported the matter said he would cancel the site on the spot.
Right now at this link, you can see all the recently filed comments, and over 5,000 others, including the one involved, but I have a question. Who do I talk to at the FCC or email there regarding the matter so they can pull it.
