Re: current method failed The roadway system analogy and taxing fuel to support it lends itself well to metered billing for broadband too. Oh wait.....we don't want that.
If we really want Internet access everywhere regardless of location and ROI, put the regulated telephone monopoly back together. Oh wait.....we don't really want to do that either.
Instead, we'd rather hang our hat on forcing open access to aging infrastructure that the infrastructure owners will likely be even less willing to upgrade given this new found "competition". I don't believe open access is the savior that some believe it to be. |
