Skype Asks FCC to Level the Playing Field

I understand that they are arguing against cellular carriers' prohibited use clauses, but my argument is that those clauses are to protect against another voice competitor (i.e. Skype) from using their network with no compensation. Otherwise, they face the risk of flooded data networks, and no ability to sell voice plans (still their bread and butter) and certainly no overage.

Maybe Skype should build a national backbone to run their VoIP service over.
