 dynodbPremium,VIP join:2004-04-21 Minneapolis, MN | I call BS I call BS- there's no way they're being honest here; keep in mind that the CWA (of which I'm a member) is a special interest group that would benefit from a massive government broadband subsidy in the form of new jobs and members.
It sounds like they're comparing what's available, not what's actually used, including those who can't get broadband at all. Having a fast connection available isn't that useful if it's too expensive for most people to bother with.
Also, requiring 2M to be considered "broadband" seems to be pushing it- that would exclude millions of 1.5M DSL connections that should almost certainly be considered as broadband. |
