I'd highly encourage people to post on reddit and hacker news.
I've gone and responded to as many of ill-informed comments as possible. It
looks like many of them have been up-voted. We'll need to keep on top of this
as things develop.
I'm going to try and call into Free Talk Live tonight.

They don't seem to understand that the FCC has explicitly stated router

Anybody who could point that out on hackernewer would help. Apparently you
can only post twice per ???? period of time there.
If someone can comment here:

Here's a draft of the rules where they specifically ask how You will prevent
end users from installing DD-WRT.
Third-Party Access Control: What prevents third parties from loading non-US
versions of the software/firmware on the device? Describe in detail how the
device is protected from “flashing” and the installation of third-party
firmware such as DD-WRT.
