I wonder if the menonites would have to abandon their beloved internet, seeing as the devil is in the wires or some such thing.
There was some commercial a few years ago by a large corporation, with Sean Connery as the narrator. They showed a high tension power corridor, saying something about information traveling along these wires. This nonsense bothered me so much, I wrote the company. For whatever reason, I never saw the commercial again.
Some of the high voltage transport wires will have a fiber optic core. So yes power lines can also transport high speed data (and voice too now, since voice is just data now too.)
