As we head into January, time is running out to ensure all unserved locations are counted on the FCC’s new #broadband map. This is important because map created using data submitted by the January 13th cutoff will be used by the NTIA to decide where BILLIONS in #broadbandgrant funding will be directed.

If TV output in the UK is to be online only in 10 years, then broadcasters should be doing more to pressure the gov and BT Openreach to actually get decent internet connections into people's homes.

One could argue some of the TV licence should be used. But with the Tories looking to scrap it that makes things difficult. They shouldn't have scrapped Labour's digital tax on phone bills when they came into power in 2010.
