The long version is here, but the short version is that Vrignaud got a call from his ISP Comcast last month. The call informed him that he had hit his 250 GB monthly data cap.

This month he got another call from Comcast telling him he hit his cap again. Because this was the second time, Comcast informed him that they were cutting off his internet access for a year.

Follow @haroldfeldI've written quite a bit recently about the fight of would-be new entrant Lightsquared to build a wholesale LTE service over the objections of the GPS industry. For those looking for an incredibly lengthy and rather opinionated history and the issues, I recommend my Insanely Long Field Guide To Lightsquared v. the GPS Guys. For something much shorter and to the point, you can find my op ed piece on GigaOm here. The short version is that Lightsquared does, in fact, cause interference with GPS, even though it is operating under rules the FCC approved in 2003. This brings us to the question of who bears the cost of trying to make Lightsquared, or any new system, work.
