Cox’s moved matched other leaders in the industry aggressively implementing capped service, like its competitors Comcast and AT& T. Broadband. Now, which is a partially industry- funded search engine for home internet providers, is identifying and releasing data on the ISPs trying to jump on the capped data bandwagon.

According to their search of provider websites as of August 7, approximately 1. The monthly caps in question vary from as low as 3. GB—roughly what Netflix says will be consumed in an hour of HD programming—to as high as 3.

TB. According to Ars. Technica, Newport, New York’s NTCNet, which has the 3. GB cap in place, says the cap is not enforced and is only there as a placeholder in case they need to enforce limits in the future. But a number of other services had caps under 1.

GB, while numerous services capped accounts at under 1. GB. As Ars. Technica noted, some of the largest broadband companies including AT& T, Comcast, Cox, Century. Link, Mediacom and Suddenlink were on the list, as well as major satellite providers Exede and Hughes. Net. Many of the ISPs on the list charge overage fees for further access or offer unlimited plans at higher rates, though some others do not aggressive enforce the caps. All of this data, of course, does not necessarily cover various other ways ISPs can screw over their customers, like throttling internet access for heavy users or overselling capacity out of ignorance or deliberate profiteering. In the past, some ISPs have also used deceptive advertising language to give the impression plans which simply raise overage fee thresholds are actually unlimited, i. Currently, the Federal Communications Commission is under the dubious leadership of Donald Trump appointee Ajit Pai, who has declared war on net neutrality and seems determined to roll back rules which prevent ISPs from implementing tiered services or throttling competitors.

In that light, last year’s attempts by content providers like Netflix to fight data caps via FCC regulatory action now look somewhat quixotic. Broadband. Now’s data also doesn’t say anything about mobile providers, for whom data caps and other tricks to limit customer utilization of bandwidth are basically a fixture of the landscape; Verizon Wireless, for example, has begun openly throttling mobile video.[Broadband.

BATTLE LOST - OUR LADY OF LORETO IS DESTROYEDBy Truby Chiaviello, Publisher & Editor PRIMO Magazine. Before - Our Lady of Loreto once contained a beautiful interior for Mass said to a flock of devoted Italian American Catholics After - Our Lady of Loreto today, on the cusp of total demolition, as requested by Bishop Nicholas Di.

Marzio, of the Brooklyn archdiocese. Our Lady of Loreto has been destroyed. The Brooklyn archdiocese got its way.

And the church, built by Italian immigrants over 1. One photo was taken by my son Samer last week. You can see how the church is boarded up. No doubt this is a demolition site.

You can see how the roof has been removed and, thus, the interior. It is reminiscent of what happens to a building that had a bomb dropped on it. The church was near a subway stop. I visited there in 2. Our Lady of Loreto was located on 1.

Sackman Street in Brooklyn. Part of Brownsville or Ocean Hill neighborhood in Brooklyn.

Some refer to the area as East New York. This neighborhood was once a densely populated Italian neighborhood. About 1. 10 years ago, the Italian immigrants wanted a Catholic church of their own. A house of worship that conveyed their language, customs and traditions. So, they volunteered their money and labor.

Many of the men who lived there were carpenters and bricklayers and had experience in construction. They hired an Italian architect and built a beautiful church. You can see photos here from the web site devoted to Our Lady of Loreto, a web site maintained by Dominick Mondelli. The interior was beautifully designed. There is a ceiling mural. A statue of San Innocenzo at Loreto. Here is a photo of Mass at the church in 1.

You can see that it was well- attended and made up of many devoted parishioners. In the 1. 96. 0s, Our Lady of Loreto was turned over to the Brooklyn archdiocese.

And 4. 0 years later, the archdiocese wanted to tear it down. That’s when PRIMO got involved. I published a feature article on the effort of Italian Americans who once lived in the neighborhood, who attended Mass there at Our Lady of Loreto, who were baptized there, had their first communion and confirmation there; and so they organized to save the church. Besides PRIMO, the Italian Tribune, mainstream newspapers and news sites in New York such as the New York Times and the Daily News and others brought a lot of publicity to the preservation effort. And all things were offered to the archdiocese including a creative development idea that preserved the church. This was back in 2. Brooklyn archdiocese agreed to retain the church in return for demolishing the rectory next door.

The archdiocese was supposed to upkeep the structure and they didn’t. And here is where one wonders about the intentions of Bishop Nicholas Di.

Marzio and other officials of the Brooklyn archdiocese. Did they intentionally allow Our Lady of Loreto to deteriorate so they could claim it as a danger to the community and apply for demolition? This is what happened over the last 1. The fight to preserve it included petitions and donation drives. Now, you hear the news about how divided is America. Well, the activists involved came from all walks of life.

Not just Italian Americans, but people who live in the neighborhood or are active in it - these were African Americas who’s ancestors come from different parts of Africa and the Caribbean - these were Latinos - Asians - everyone was involved to keep Our Lady of Loreto because they all recognized it as a beautiful church - a real work of art in so many ways. In the end, however, the fight was lost. The legal appeals exhausted and the archdiocese had their way - and Our Lady of Loreto is being torn down. In its place will be affordable housing. You can see photos here, taken by Todd Maisel, of The Daily News, how the the murals, statuary, the decorative elements - all being beaten and destroyed. The time it took to build them, the craftsmanship, the artistry - all for nothing - destroyed. Very sad. This is not the only church to face its extinction. Watch Punching The Clown HD 1080P.

PRIMO reported on St Peter’s in Duluth, Minnesota and the effort there by Robin Mainella to save it. The situation began also around 2.

I wanted both churches to survive. But I thought if one was going to face it’s demolition, it would have been St. Peter’s. Instead, the opposite happened. An artist by the name of Jeffrey T.

Larson purchased St. Peters and has now turned it into an art academy.

One wonders, why couldn’t the same thing have happened to Our Lady of Loreto. This part of Brownsville is still knee deep in poverty and dispossession. It remains a place plagued by urban decay.

People need more than just a roof over their heads. They need inspiration from art. They need faith. One wonders why the Brooklyn archdiocese didn’t sell the property to another denomination - perhaps a Protestant faith - now prevalent in the area. In return for keeping the church and its interior decorations, the people there could have a place of worship.

It is not unusual for Catholic churches to be converted to Baptists and other Protestant denominations. Unfortunately, that’s not the case. The turning point was when the parish turned itself over to the archdiocese.

Any time you build something, you should try and keep it, because those whom you hand it over to, really don’t care and they will destroy it when the moment arises. The silver lining are the activists, all ethnicities and backgrounds, that tried to save Our Lady of Loreto. We commend them for their efforts.

We commend also the Italian immigrants who built this church. They came to build up the city and not tear it down - unlike the archdiocese and now even some others in local government that want to tear down statues of Columbus and others. We learn from this sad situation, that the effort to preserve our Italian heritage in New York and all over America is well worth the fight and we have to keep fighting whenever we are faced with destruction of our heritage. Here is a list the people who fought the good fight to save Our Lady of Loreto. If I missed anyone, please let me know, as I want to include anyone and everyone who fought the good fight. We commend the following people who led the effort to preserve the church.

Flavia Alaya. Gianfranco Archimede. Simeon Bankoff. Patricia Dean. Jeff Dunston. Gerald Ferretti. Barbara Florio. Lester Ford. Louis Gallo. Marialena Giampino. Monica Kumar. Farrah Lafontant.
