| Open Access from FTTH co's. that don't want to be ISPs The only future for Open Access is where companies want to build FTTH systems(like for greenfield developments; or community systems) and DON'T want to be in the ISP business as well.
The FCC doesn't want to recommend Open Access mandates by government because they know that the congresscritters will never back that suggestion and give the FCC the legal backing to do so.
The FCC will only recommend those things that they know there is already support for in Congress. Plans drawn up by agencies that depend on Congress for their operating funds will only submit plans that they know have backing. And that is just the nature of a bureaucracy. |
