At least it's better than soliciting spamments. One web hosting company just sent out an email to customers with a handy online form for adding yourself to their letter asking the FCC to keep Web hosting as a Priority One service.
One statement in the email caught my eye: "...thousands of school districts from across the United States submitted comments on the proposed E-rate funding changes...." Thousands?! That seemed a bit high, so I checked: there are only 1,513 comments filed in Docket 13-184. And a lot of those are not from applicants. I would bet there are fewer than 1,000 comments from school districts.
I said long ago that I think web hosting is overpriced, but since it eats up less than 2% of the fund, it's not worth a lot of my time.
