FCC's VoIP USF order -- in need of appeal?
Almost unnoticed due to the headline-grabbing fight for network neutrality, the FCC's USF order for VoIP may turn out to be a huge blow to the nascent IP communications industry. Jeff Pulver, for one, thinks an appeal of the order is necessary: "I will not watch from the sidelines or from abroad while the FCC sabotages Internet communications," Pulver says in his blog today.
It's a whale of an order to read, but since you have the long holiday weekend ahead, perhaps it makes sense to spend some time perusing the order itself, to see if you agree that it does hold the potential to harm the IP communications industry.
