So I had the chance to read an article about another WISP operator's blog. While it does not dive in to the nit and grit, here are two posts that point at why Title II is bad. It has nothing to do with getting people better internet service or providing more coverage. These are basically blindfolds the industry is using on consumers to fight Title II for ISPs and Net Neutrality.
Keep in mind, these aren't my view specifically.

All said and done, Title II will cost the consumer more. It will not improve coverage. And because big providers are what they are, they will stop developing and focus more on charging the customer more.
Honestly, until the rules are voted on and released, there really is no way to know for sure how it will affect me or the company I work for.
But I promise you, Title II doesn't help the consumer.
Discuss!! I would like to hear everyone's opinions on this.
