Ruben,
I've no doubt that SOME of the Internet may be public
property,though I don't know for sure. The Internet is not a
single entity, it's made up of thousands of switches, routers,
muxes, optical segments, etc., that are indeed private property.
To be honest,you seem so uninformed on this subject I'm surprised
you attempt to debate it.
If you look into this pending bill, The Internet
Non-Discrimination Act of 2006, by Sen. Ron Wyden (D-OR), you
will see that if passed it will place the FCC in the business of
regulating the Internet. If you can show that Time Warner is
involved in getting this legislation introduced,I willbe very
surprised.
