It’s official: White House wants more spectrum for wireless broadband.
Excellent idea, we aren’t’ going to be able to build a nationwide fiber network outside of cities and suburbs. Wireless broadband seems the only reasonable solution. Either that or we sit back and watch as the rest of the world leaves us behind.
This kind of infrastructure is what we need to support future growth. The internet grew out of government project, so can a national broadband network, at least in part. With a regulatory regime designed around cheap access and content neutrality, freeing up spectrum and subsidizing the build out of fiber where it makes sense a brighter broadband future is in grasp.
