Segnala Alfonso With liberty and 100 megabit/second broadband for all.
Sen. Jay Rockefeller (D-VA) is on board with the broadband love and has an even more ambitious goal: universal 100Mbps broadband from sea to shining sea by 2015, with an interim goal of 10Mbps by 2010.

However, the definition of broadband competition used by the FCC—where competition is between different modes of broadband delivery rather than the providers themselves—has left millions of Americans with little or no choice when it comes to fast Internet service. And if the telecoms deploying their next-generation networks get their way, that will not change any time in the near future, as they continue to limit their fiber deployments to more profitable and affluent neighborhoods within a municipality while bypassing others.
Universal megabit broadband is not only a noble goal but is arguably a strategic imperative for the US. Sen. Rockefeller's resolution is a first step in the right direction, but the future legislation envisioned by the senator needs to reflect and correct the many failings of current broadband policy in the US if it is to have any meaningful impact.
