Hawaii wants to speed up its net

HAWAIIAN LEADERS ARE MIFFED that they have a slower internet connection than the rest of the US and have set up a commission to stick a rocket up the ISPs.

Governer Linda Linglehas introduced a bill that would establish a Hawaii Communications Commission to regulate all Internet service providers, including phone and cable.

It is not clear how Internet companies will be forced to offer broadband. And it doesn't propose any extra state funding for the project because it will be paid for by existing fees, so probably nothing to see here... move along please. µ
