One Last Warning Before America Screws Up Broadband Mapping > Wait a minute

said by k1ll3rdr4g0n:

So let me get this straight -
We spend thousands, even millions for Americans to go door to door and take down information for the census. But, we can't make them take down information for broadband penetration?
All you need is one person to say they can and/or have broadband from a certain company and it would be a pretty good guess that the rest of the people in the neighborhood can get it or has it; at the very least on that street. It wont be 100% accurate, but I would say it would be 80-90% accurate - a lot better than what we currently have. At the very least that extra checkbox on the census could be used to compare to whatever Connected Nation says and check for any odd ball reports (such as CN saying a neighborhood has 100% broadband availability when the census says 0 people have broadband in that neighborhood).

Only in America....
