Earlier this year, we wrote about
<http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20060131/2021240.shtml> Bruce
Kushnick's book, $200 Billion Broadband Scandal
<http://www.newnetworks.com/broadbandscandals.htm> , laying out all the
details for how the telcos were granted all sorts of subsidies and
benefits in exchange for promising to delivering high speed fiber to our
homes -- something they've still never done. Kushnick has been talking
about this travesty of a situation for many years, and the book lays it
all out in tremendous detail. With so much debate going on concerning
network neutrality, Kushnick let us know that he is now offering the
entire book as a free download <http://www.newnetworks.com/scandals.htm>
for this week only. There's a short summary
<http://www.newnetworks.com/ShortSCANDALSummary.htm>, if you were
wondering what exactly the telcos promised to deliver, and what it's
cost everyone for them not to actually deliver it. It's yet another
reminder on why actually trusting the telcos on anything they say is a
unlikely to do you any good.
