'''A:''' Yes, PBEM has been recruited by [[wikipedia:Illuminati|The Illuminati]] to use NET to cover up the JFK assassination and this is the first step. I've already started photoshopping NET hard hats on the grassy knoll and printing NET IDs that say "Clint Hill" on them. You found me out. But no seriously, I wrote a whole section answering this question, [https://volunteerpdx.net/index.php/2023-2024_NET_Program_Realignment#What_is_Driving_Realignment? please go back and read it]. Also, do you realize what happens if NETs don't approve these changes? ''I have less work to do.'' I'll bet you didn't expect "Creating more work for myself" as the breathtaking ulterior motive, did you?

===== Q: But NETs will self deploy in response to a windstorm, like the Columbus Day Storm! =====
'''A:''' No, a strong windstorm would not trigger self deployment protocols. The Columbus Day Storm of 1962 hit gusts of 170 mph. It ''is'' true that the bare minimum standard for cell phone towers to withstand wind is 90 mph. But that is the ''bare minimum''. Though companies do not publish the standards to which their infrastructure is built, I have a hard time believing that a utility company would put up very expensive cell infrastructure all over the region that couldn't withstand the strongest wind storm we've ever seen. So no, a windstorm knocking out comms is highly unlikely and therefore would not trigger self deployment. Admittedly not impossible, but very unlikely.
