...wait for it

Camp A Posters: Holy Socialist Agenda, Batman! The data will show the incumbent telcos and cablecos to be greedy, cherry picking, taxpayer shucking industrialists! The sky is falling!!

Camp B Posters: (whistling) Nothing to see here, move along, all is well, we've reached total saturation on deployment...

Neither perspective will be accurate, or correct, but will nonetheless get posted here anyways.

Perhaps a "wink" or [sarcasm on] would have been appropriate...

Ok, here's my take on this issue. You tell me if I've got it right.

The phone companies already have address availability databases. Make them turn their data over to the government, at no charge. Assess heavy penalties or even jail time for inaccurate data. Problem solved!

Well, unless the NSA asks for it, it ain't happening...

Gosh, I like this... Do cable companies have this too? Or if it's available in one place in their system, it's available in all place? I mean, they should have this. Good idea!

This, I totally agree with... There is a balance between the two. I say, let "free market" do what it is supposed to do. Make them keep the promises of the past. For people in the "sticks", the government needs to eventually step up. They have elctricity and phone out there, they should also have reasonable internet. I think 3 MBPS down / 512KBPS up is the bare minimum even in the boonies.
