Levin: Your Broadband Comments Weren't Helpful
Broadband Reports, July 22, 2009
By Karl Bode
Blair Levin, the man in charge of the FCC's national broadband plan, wasn't impressed with the first round of requested comments on how best to achieve our national broadband goals. Consumer group Free Press quickly piled on, complaining that the dull and useless comments were mostly the work of incumbent carriers that like things the way they are.
