TWC – Summary Judgement – People vs Time Warner and Broadband Metering
MeterThis! Groundswell Against TWC
Meterthis! was launched 4 – 8 – 09. TWC changed the course of their broadband capping and metering plans on 4 – 16 – 09.
Thanks to many of the others voices in the effort. Specifically I would like to congratulate:
Electronista for delivering a knockout post.
Omar Gallaga from the Austin American Statesman for keeping us up to speed locally.
David Ruif from the San Antonio Express News who was interviewing me yesterday when we found out TWC had backed down. Check out David’s podcast of the interview here.
Thanks to everyone who participated. We have more work to do, as TWC said they were delaying the “tests” until October while they educate us about the benefits of their tiered pricing. (grin)
