This is overstating the case a bit. I'm not saying that aircraft owners must
be getting hit right and left; what I am saying is that there's fire beneath
all of the smoke, and dismissing it entirely because Zoom is raising the
issue is wrong. Not even Zoom is wrong 100% of the time.

Put another way, if Zoom came out against the current ADS-B proposal, would
that mean that it was good?

This is one case of one of Niven's Laws: "There is no idea so good that you
cannot find a fool who supports it."
