WIRELESS

Pres. of San Francisco Chamber of Commerce
calls for approval of SF-EarthLink-Google deal:

“Now, surprisingly, the proposal faces stiff opp-
osition from a few members of the board. Their
rationale for opposing the contract? In due time,
the city may - and I emphasize, "may"- develop

and manage a municipally owned WiFi system.
In other words, these supervisors are ignoring
the needs of their own constituents in favor of
a pipe dream that may or may not come to
fruition.”
