FCC THINKING ABOUT SETTING UP BROADBAND INFORMATION CLEARINGHOUSE

摘要

The FCC asked whether it should create a "broadband clearinghouse." The clearinghouse "could reduce information barriers for municipalities, agencies, businesses, and non-profits that want insights into more effectively utilizing broadband infrastructure, or into broadband deployment or adoption projects," the commission said in its 10th public notice on the national broadband plan. "Such a clearinghouse could also provide information and a forum for scholars and policymakers to gather and contribute data." Comments are due Nov. 16.
