Beyond Telecom: From Telecom to Connectivity

Bob Frankston:

"By framing the problem as telecommunications defined by telephony and television and then legislating this model we have stymied the marketplace. Just removing regulation is not enough if it fails the anti-trust test. As long as the first mile of connectivity is a limited resource those who have an interest in using it to prevent competition in services/content must not given the ability to control it. A bifurcated marketplace of connectivity vs services/content is necessary remedy in order to enable a real market."
