Free Broadband Isn't Really Free

FREE BROADBAND ISN'T REALLY FREE
[SOURCE: webpronews, AUTHOR: Jason Lee Miller]
[Commentary] The US broadband situation is so dire that you may not even be able to give away access. Worse, there might be good reason for that. You may not have heard of M2Z Networks, Inc., but 50,000 others have and are pressuring the FCC to approve the company's offer of free nationwide broadband access. What's wrong with free broadband? Well, nothing, essentially, except that this free broadband, like the free lunch, doesn't really exist. M2Z has proposed an ad-supported, "family friendly" network based upon the network television model, which sort of runs contrary to Net Neutrality principles, supported by at least a million and a half people, and opposed by incumbent broadband providers.
