Like what?
In all honesty, I think one of the absolute last things on the governments "to do" list should be mapping the residential broadband deployments of private companies. It serves no point whatsoever, costs taxpayers money, and would likely add to the charges telco's/ISP's include on their bills (broadband mapping fee anyone?). Unless you live under a rock, you likely know what broadband providers service your area. Assuming you live in an area with no broadband, having a map showing you that there is no broadband available is of no use at all.
