FCC May Be Told to Tell the Truth

Scott Bradner writes on NetworkWorld:

In the mid-1990s, Congress worried about the slow pace of broadband Internet deployment in the United States, so it included a requirement in the Telecommunications Act of 1996 that the FCC annually report on deployment status. Since then, the FCC has been living up to the letter of the law but producing almost useless information.

Congress may be about to order the FCC to change its ways and produce some information that actually makes sense.
