Abstract
This article challenges the findings of the February 2002 report of the Federal Communications Commission regarding the status of broadband advanced network and high-speed service development in the US. The author questions the reports conclusion that current network development is reasonable and timely, based on both the data itself and contradictory evidence. Further, the Commission's measurement is inadequate to determine the extent of service. The article advocates that inadequate measurements should not be a basis for deregulating the industry at a time when future availability of technology will dramatically impact the lives of many Americans.
