    The BSG is the Broadband Stakeholder Group. Fortunately, they do provide a list of members.

    A little sampling of the members of this "Broadband Stakeholder Group":

    British Music Rights

    Universal Studios

    Panasonic

    And my favorite: "The Work Foundation" (a fully owned subsidiary of The Human Fund) Source: Broadband Stakeholder Group's Website

    And remember, never attribute to studpidity that which can more accurately be attributed to a global conspiracy.
