Note that the new QRZ policy specifically allows remarks regarding the FCC
(and their inaction when it comes to Part 15, in general). Read the last
paragraph on my QRZ page. It's all from experience and not snake oil,
political flaming, or heresay. Other political subjects are now strongly
discouraged and bordering on banned in the forums. For the application,
both QRZ and RFI should prohibit rank political discussion when it does not
directly involve ham radio and in general, RFI. After all, the two
subjects that are strongly advised against for the considerate amateur
radio operator are politics and religion. I believe that's fair.
Just my opinion.
