So tired of @lawandeconomics argument that poor people just don't want #broadband & we don't know why. Why don't more people participate in #Lifeline? Maybe bc the subsidy is tiny & the Trump @FCC did its level best to make it hard to get. wired.com/story/opinion-…. #SubCommTech
@lawandeconomics @FCC I also invite anybody to go to their local library & wait a few hours to use the computers with free Internet access. #SubCommTech
@lawandeconomics @FCC Those with their hair aflame over "government-run broadband" seem unaware that the most common models today are public-private partnerships & open access networks which give commercial ISPs the opportunity to provide connectivity outside their service areas. #SubCommTech
Looking forward to hearing fr @ChrisJ_Lewis @FranOchillo & @joitweets talk about how gov't can foster digital equity - both in affordability & availability at today's @EnergyCommerce hearing at 11:30. WATCH: energycommerce.house.gov/committee-acti… #SubCommTech
@ChrisJ_Lewis @FranOchillo @joitweets @EnergyCommerce Special thanks to @FrankPallone @USRepMikeDoyle & the amazing @EnergyCommerce staff for keeping focus on #broadband affordability & how 2 ensure that low-income residents get robust high speed service.
@ChrisJ_Lewis @FranOchillo @joitweets @EnergyCommerce @FrankPallone @USRepMikeDoyle .@USRepMikeDoyle gives a big nod to community #broadband & open access networks as drivers of competition - lowering prices & improving services from competitors & incumbents. #SubCommTech
