A Q&A with National Broadband Plan architect Blair Levin. The former Federal Communications Commission staffer is now an Aspen Institute fellow.
Asked -- What's the most grating misunderstanding you've confronted about the NBP? Answers: "That the only thing that counts is the speed of the wireline network to rural homes. It is a very counterproductive way to think about the problem. The right way is to ask: how do we have a ubiquitous, diverse and constantly improving ecosystem of networks, devices, applications, and most of all, people who know how to use them."
