One of the reasons BPL is still around is that Google invested
$100,000,000
in it. Many Hams and SWLs are boycotting Google because of it.

I might have thought they were impulsively ****ing away their excess cash,
much as Ford Motor did in the 90s. But that was before The SW Prediction
Paradigm Shift. Who knows? Maybe the Googlists are expecting BPL to
actually work. No, I still don't think BPL will be able to competitively
download porn and pirated mp3s. But nobody is saying DSL will burst your
capillaries and nobody is saying cable internet will make you bleed from
your eyes.
