REALLY? Thinking it can't happen is a joke. I wish. It can and it already is moving that way on mobile Internet access (cell type mobile
"broadband"). On this one topic -- broadband and wireless -- chances are I am this site's best expert (you can believe it or not). I know top FCC
people on a first name basis. I have toured ISPs with the former FCC Chairman Powell and then Commisioner (and later Chairmen himself) Martin. THIS
WILL HAPPEN unless the public makes it clear in voice and action to their elected representatives. Already the conservative courts have hog-tied the
FCC's arms, who wanted to make permanent Net Neutrality.
In other words, IT IS ALREADY BEING PUT IN PLACE and the ignorant people (ignorance is being used in a factual sense here) in the Tea Party are
cheering the Republican cronies on.

Not true. Broadband is my field. You are refering to BPL and/or PLC (broadband over power lines or power line carrier). Don't believe the hype. The technology is extremely problematic due to variances in voltage along the grid, among other pretty much unsurmountable challenges. Don't believe the hype in articles or trade rags -- none of these are really learned but rather regurgitation of company press releases.
In any event, every network, BPL, WiMAX, Wi-Fi, DSL, cable, satellite, LTE, 3G, fiber...ALL of them have to route through a NOC and that is the point of control to the rest of the Internet unless you want some isolated, disconnected local peering network.
Don't get apathetic and think the loss of Net Neutrality is no big deal. We are ALL screwed if we lose it.
If wireless doesn't work, then im almost 100% certain that hackers can turn the power lines into a huge interconnected network too. This has already been proven to work by using a different frequency much like DSL uses a different frequency of your phone line.
