| Zip code criterion bogus, and they know it ...
'like in my zip code. Only a tiny portion has broadband, yet the whole area is counted as "served".
The problem is, the FCC has great incentive to use the most optimistic, highly misleading metric possible, and that gives them the most chance of avoiding the "immediate action" directive in the Telecomm Act. Since they get to choose which metric they use, they are naturally going to pick the one that gives them the greatest chance ofr having to do nothing. |
