I know it's a public-private partnership, and I know the key point is "hey, it's faster/better," but after all the NSA revelations, do we really want the government to have direct control over our network access?
It is a local government, to be fair. And honestly? The current legislative landscape means there's almost no functional difference between public internet and Comcast internet. There's still the pretext of a warrant in specific cases, but after that? Bring out the trap and trace gear and the NSA black box for everything else!
