Found this on Slashdot "For years, plenty of folks (including the Government Accountability Office) have been pointing out that the way the FCC <http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20070205/165735.shtml> measures broadband competition is very flawed. It simply assumes that if a single household in a zip code is offered broadband by provider A, then every household in that zip code can get broadband from provider A. See the problem? For some reason the FCC still hasn't changed its ways, but at least they're starting to realize the problem. They're now saying they need to change <http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,1895,2115154,00.asp> the way they measure competition. Commissioner Michael Copps points out: 'Our statistical methodology seems almost calculated to obscure just how far <http://techdirt.com/articles/20070418/143208.shtml> our country is falling behind many other industrialized nations in broadband availability, adoption, speed and price.'"
