Quotes of Note on Brand X

"After all is said and done,... and the smoke of agency expertise blown away, it remains perfectly clear that someone who sells cable-modem service is 'offering' telecommunications."Justice Antonin Scalia's dissenting opinion


"Today's decision makes the climb much steeper."FCC Commissioner Michael Copps, commenting on case.

Both quotes from this.
(You might recall that in 1999, in AT&T v Iowa, Scalia also said, "It would be gross understatement to say that the Telecommunications Act of 1996 is not a model of clarity. It is in many important respects a model of ambiguity or indeed even self-contradiction.")
