Broadband policy wanted in online politics
February 19, 2008
Drew Clark maintains on the Technology Liberation Front that America’s need for a National Broadband strategy is on everyone’s lips.
“Seriously, it is amazing how much consensus there seems to have developed on this simple point,” Clark writes. “From the Bell carriers to Googlers, from public interest groups to local legislators, from Democratic activists critical of anything and everything done by the Bush administration to rural Republicans who finally want the Universal Service Fund to cover high-speed Internet services: they all want a National Broadband Strategy.”
Clark expects the beginning of the debate to have started on the upcoming 2008 Politics Online Conference.
